Who Could Be Next
Everyone assumes that Velle will soon announce who Säve should interview next. Nobody expects it to be Velle herself. Nolle stands silently off to the side, Mask on, probably watching but it is hard to be sure, standing straighter and surer than you ever saw him before he had it to wear.
Velle, as if these things should already be obvious to everyone: “Of course Säve should do her own Mask last. Y is going to be… a challenge. And Anise… Anise is busy. So it’s me.”
Busy? You calmly shift the Doll in Indigo Clothes you’re working on, intended for Velle herself, out of view of the others.
