She was tired-oh so very, very tired. Never-not in all her life-had
Evony Elorietta known such thoroughgoing fatigue. As she trudged
out of the dark woods still veiled in the shadows of early sunrise,
out across the expanse of cold, dew-drenched grass and onto the
main road of the village, Evony wondered how she would ever endure
a day that was only just beginning. Every bone in her body
ached-every muscle throbbed in misery, every inch of her flesh
begged for respite. Yet there would be none-at least not until she
had finished her stitching-finished the near thirteen hours of
sewing she now faced under the ever observant, incessantly critical
eye of seamstress Agnes Teche. After such a long, chilled, and
sleepless night spent in watching-peering through the darkness and
into the rooms of the inn in the woods, until her eyes were too dry
to watch any longer-after listening to the shallow, often vile
conversations, until her ears hurt from the foul ferment of
it-Evony dreaded sewing for Mrs. Teche more than ever before. The
woman was a banshee of an employer. And yet, she was grateful Mrs.
Teche had had the keen eye to recognize Evony's superior skills
with needle and thread-for how else would Evony have managed to
feed Mikol and Tressa-to shelter them-to keep them hidden?
