<p>Zita&rsquo;s eyes darted this way and that as though to take in all of his face, to look at his eyes and to check for the scars that Lyut had sometimes felt while washing, though he knew not where they came from. Eventually, she looked into his eyes for a long moment.</p>
<p>This act made Lyut uncomfortable, and he did not rightly know why. Was there something to behold there? He could see her eyes, for they were round and dark, and seemed to be made of a ring of brown surrounding a circle of black, and as her eyes moved, he saw that the circle of black would sometimes get larger or smaller, though perhaps it was some trick of the light.</p>
<p>He could see her eyes, and yet he felt as though to look directly into the eyes of someone was to see truly see them, and he was worried that, on some level, Zita would be able to read his thoughts and fears, that she would know deeper secrets about him than he could possibly ever know about her. Was this some knowledge of the sighted that he would someday learn himself?</p>
<p>As well, this close to her and he could smell her better than he ever had before, and she was in no way, in no sense unpleasant.</p>
<p>The feeling of being sullied and unholy hung around him like a cloud.</p>
<p>He asked, then, quietly: &ldquo;What do you see, Zita?&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;I see you as I always see you, but I see you with your eyes open and clear, where they used to be cloudy and dull, and I see your fur brown and thick without the scars that my mother says have lined your eyes since you were born.&rdquo;</p>

<p>&ldquo;Do they smell beneath the water?&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;After a fashion, yes.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Do they smell my incense?&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;No, faithful. The boundary between the domain of air and the domain of water are too different. Do you smell your incense beneath water?&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;No, faithful. The boundary between the domain of air and the domain of water is too keen. Do you smell your incense beneath water?&rdquo;</p>
<p>Lyut looks angry, then laughs. &ldquo;No, I do not breathe under water. Only, I wonder.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Yes, Lyut?&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;I wonder if the fish upon the shore here has the chance to smell the incense and hear the prayers to Ýng before it dies.&rdquo;</p>

<p>&ldquo;That is all we ever ask of our servants, Lyut.&rdquo;</p>
