Chapter 193

I tried to think about why I was upset. Probably Hannah's letter, I assumed. It made me feel better in a big way. In a smaller way I could read her anger in the letter. She shouldn't have to go through life permanently furious. It wouldn't be healthy.

I was worried about my daughter. That's what had me upset.

"These are...strange," I said as Evan pulled a white shirt over my head and tucked it in to my pants.

The leather of the pants wasn't touching me. There seemed to be a linen layer inside of them. I asked about it and the men didn't have an answer. That's how pants were made. Tomorrow they would slip a new linen in before they put them on me.

"It's underwear," I said as Bane put my boots on my feet.

"Earth word," Kein answered strapping the sword to my waist.

The men stepped back and admired their handiwork for a moment. Evan finished dressing me by pulling my hair back into a tie. They all looked quite satisfied with themselves.
