Koru lay on the carpet in front of the Library door, peeking out through the crack between the floor and the bottom of the door, keeping watch for their mother.

"This isn't fair, you know," she said in a loud whisper. "I want to see too."

"Only one of us can use the far-seer," Cathal whispered back.

"We can take turns."

"There's going to be a fight, Koru.  You want to see blood?"

Koru thought about that for a moment. "Well, you wouldn't be able to see much at this distance."

"No, but what if someone gets their head chopped off?  It'd go flying off and--"

"Okay!  Okay!  I get your point.  Never mind."

Cathal smiled to himself and re-focused the telescope. Something was happening now. People were headed toward the gate. He gasped as he saw Peri.

"What is it?" asked Koru, not sure she really wanted to know.

"Aunt Peri's with them!"

"Aunt Peri?  She's going to fight?"

"I don't know."

"Well you're the one who sees things!  How come you can't tell what's going to happen?"

"It doesn't work that way, Koru.  I only see what he gods send me."

Koru mulled that over as she went back to watching under the door. "I hope Aunt Peri doesn't get hurt," she said in a worried voice.

"Me too, Koru.  Me too."
