The wizard at Mecq tst-1

Page 30

by Rick Shelley


  The crowd around the main entrance parted. A light rain was falling on Mecq again, gentle, cleansing, renewing the land.

  Silvas and Maria stood at the door of the church for several minutes, until people started coming out of the smoke-Braf Goleg and a half dozen of his soldiers, Koshka and an equal number of his people. Some went into St. Katrinka's and brought Carillia's body out on a stretcher. A few gathered the horses that had carried the monks up to Mecq's castle earlier. The rest flanked them as a guard of honor.

  Silvas and Maria descended the steps hand in hand and walked toward the tower of smoke. Carillia's body was borne before them. Bosc and Bay followed. Silvas and Maria stopped for a moment at the edge of the smoke. Bosc and Bay passed on through. Maria waved. Silvas raised a hand as if in benediction. Then they went inside. The pillar of smoke disappeared from the ground up, withdrawing toward heaven. The only evidence that it had ever stood in the center of the village was a circle of lush, beautifully green grass-just the size of the column of smoke.
