<p>The walk down the hall was a slow and unsteady affair, and Codrin couldn&rsquo;t help but see every one of True Name&rsquo;s two and a half centuries in the way she moved. She looked as she always had, was as strong as she&rsquo;d ever been, and yet each one of those long years seemed to be a weight she had to draw along behind her. She kept her grip on eir forearm throughout, however, as though the contact kept her anchored to one reality.</p>
<p>Ey guided her into her room and helped her to sit down on the edge of her bed, and even then, it took her a few long seconds to loosen her grip.</p>
<p>&ldquo;You heard nothing today, Mx. Bălan,&rdquo; she mumbled, quiet enough that ey had to lean closer to hear. &ldquo;I know what you thought you heard, but you heard nothing. Do not tell anyone. Do not tell Ioan, and certainly do not tell any others within the Ode clade.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Ey took a half step back from the skunk. So hoarse and clouded was her voice that ey couldn&rsquo;t piece together her mood. &ldquo;I&hellip;is that a suggestion or a demand? I&rsquo;m sorry, True Name. I know how much it means, I just can&rsquo;t help but worry.&rdquo;</p>

<p>She smiled weakly and shook her head before laying out on her side, facing em. &ldquo;It is a request from me to you, Codrin, from my clade to yours. Across our two entangled clades.&rdquo; The smile faded as she added, &ldquo;Not a request, a plea.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Ey nodded, struck silent by the sincerity in her voice. Real, actual sincerity. It made em feel bashful. Ey bowed and started to turn back toward the door.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Codrin?&rdquo;</p>
