Good day to you.” Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z “Come in,” came the huntress’s voice, and the man nodded to Ash before leaving her alone, standing before the heavy canvas flap that served as a door.

Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z “Yes,” the huntress said, pulling off her cloak and beginning to yank off her thick leather gloves. Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z When they were alone again, the huntress asked, “How are things, then, at Quinn House? Are you content?” Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z Ash came to stand next to the huntress and looked down at the map; Kaisa was pointing at a clearing in the southern part of the King’s Forest. Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z “Oh, yes,” Ash said eagerly, and then it occurred to her that the huntress might have been making her an offer, and perhaps she — a common household servant — should have turned her down.

Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes 1942-01-01T00:00:00Z She trailed off, feeling uncomfortable; had the huntress not just sent her servant away to serve her? Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z Ash climbed down off the branch, and the movement in the dim light caught the huntress’s eye. Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z She looked up at Kaisa, and the huntress’s look of bewilderment was changing, slowly, to a small, tentative smile. Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z Looking at the huntress, Ash felt a surge of happiness within herself, as if she were unwrapping an unexpected gift, and the realization of it sent a blush of pink across her cheeks.

Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z There was something in her voice that sounded the tiniest bit affronted, and Ash looked at the huntress and said quickly, “Oh, I did — I will never forget today.” Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z “It’s no trouble,” Ash said, and turned to look for a kitchen towel, only to find the huntress holding one out for her, a slight smile on her face.

Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z She came onto the path, and it took a moment for the huntress to recognize her, for most of the daylight was gone. Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z They walked together in silence down the corridor, and when it opened into the great hall filled with revelers and laughter and light, the palace doors yawning open at the far end, the huntress stopped. Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z The huntress was standing at the end of the table talking with another young woman, who was dressed similarly in hunting green. Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z Ash sat down across from her and put the bread and cheese between them, and the huntress began to slice the apple as she spoke. Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z The huntress handed her a cloth bag cinched shut with a leather tie.

Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z Inside, the huntress was sitting at a square table, where a silver pitcher sat near a goblet and the remains of a meal. Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z She passed a tall span of glass windows that overlooked a sunny courtyard; she passed the balcony on which she had stood with the huntress. Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z The huntress let out her breath in a small laugh, and she said, “I am glad.” Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z If only she would turn around, Ash thought, then the huntress would finally see her.

Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z The huntress undid the latch and pulled the gate open for her, and then Ash set the bucket down on the ground for the bay mare. Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z The huntress covered the woman’s hand with her own and said, “Patience. There will be hunters.” Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z As she went up the steps, a servant came to block her way, and she thought she must surely have looked a bit crazed, but she said, “Please, I am here to see the huntress.” Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z Ash stepped toward her, dropping her satchel on the ground, and took the huntress’s hands in her own. Ash 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z She stepped back so that she would not be in the way as the huntress came around to unhitch her horse.
