“You mean a spy?”
Raven asks.
“You'd rather I
resorted to having something follow you?”
“How would you do
that, I wonder. Once I used the door...?”
“Every piece of chalk
has its board. The board for that chalk tells you when a door is
drawn and where it went. And there is always more than one piece of
chalk for every board.”
“Very well,” Raven
spits, “Send along your spy. Try not to make him too annoying.
And there's one other thing.”
“Hmmm?” inquires
the Author.
“You'll want to
formally invite me back into the Weave. Once this has drawn to a
conclusion I'll need to come back. I'd hate to be unable to fulfil
my side of our bargain.”
