Synopsis

Plot

A small room. Three men; you recognize only one.
"You, Soteria," says the leader. "I understand you have an invitation to the Celebration of the Night of the Comet."
Heat floods your face. How does he know that? "I have an invitation, but I wasn't sure-- that is, I wasn't planning--"

"What am I to do?"
"Speak to the Physician -- he's one of ours, but we've been unable to speak to him of late. Find out anything he knows about the King's illness. And protect the King."
"From what?"
The leader smiles a little wryly. "I wish I could tell you, girl. This is the Night of the Comet. It could be anything."
As you turn to go, one of the others touches your arm. "How did you get an invitation? We've all been trying for months--"
"Someone gave it to me," you say curtly. "A rendezvous of sorts."
"But--"
"Don't worry, I'll attend to my duty," you say. Adding, mostly to yourself: "The masked man won't be there anyway, I'm sure." Since he became an outlaw shortly after he invited you...
