Aeternae veritates
Opening his eyes, Tanais discovered that the door was broken and kept on one hinge, the sun generously pours its rays through the wide-open window and delicate aroma of tea roses flowing in the air, drowning out the smell of stale linen, bad food and a variety of unwashed human bodies.
- Looks like our luck has not yet reached its zenith, for the gods envy us not so much to kill, - philosophically uttered it, plenty of admiring picture of defeat.
- Horror, how are you stupid, - he sighed Aletheia. - Do not you know that when a man loves, he becomes immortal?
- Does not become Alas, only imagines himself to be, that is not the same thing. Well, I hope that today nothing can prevent us to leave.
- I want to stay …
- Crave repetition?
- In Gods rich imagination, and they are never the same.
- And how long are you gonna stay here?
- Until we find a way to go back to Feodosia and avenge his father's death.
Tanais silence charted finger on the shoulder sweetheart some intricate pattern and frowning brow smooth.
- Do you think I'm crazy? - Asked cautiously Aletheia.
- No. I am considering how to implement your desire …
- So crazy in this room, at least two - Aletheia grinned. - You can find out what you've come up with?
- I think we could help in this case, our night guests.
- In what way?
- I do not know. But it's going to find out, causing them a return visit.
- You're even crazier than I thought …
Tanais got out of bed, got dressed and went out into the corridor, shouted:
- Master! Scrambled eggs, cheese and wine!
Back in the room, she sat down on the edge of the bed and happily reported:
- Scrambled eggs, cheese and wine - this is exactly what is required for a light breakfast, it - lunch and dinner. Because the money we have left just enough to pay for accommodation and food.
- I have a gold ring. We could sell it.
- Only if I lose my simultaneously both hands and head.
Their lips have merged in a long kiss - and entered the innkeeper.
He muttered something unintelligible, he quickly put the tray on the table and quickly retreated.
- ... I think our breakfast threatens to turn not into late lunch, not during the early dinner - some time later Tanais murmured, gazing thoughtfully at the ceiling. - What do you think, is not it time we go to visit?
- Postpone for tomorrow …
- You're not dreaming to get back to Theodosia?
- Do you think I forgot about the debt?
- No, nothing that I do not think ... But I think it's time to find out which place is the love in our lives.
- And what? - Narrowed Aletheia.
- The first, but not the only one.
They ate chilled eggs, a few slices of cheese, generously poured all the wine came out of the tavern and turning into a side street, began to slowly climb up the hill.
- You'd better go back to the hotel and wait there for my return. I do not want to endanger your life.
- Why do I need life, not to mention the wealth and power, if not you?
- What I done to deserve such love and what I can pay for it ..?
- Pay only for what is sold. Try to remember that.
- Sorry, I did not want to offend you. But you are accustomed to luxury, and I - penniless …
- Would the soul …
They overpowered the rise and almost caught up with the dirty little structure as of the doors popped daveshny bunch of varmints and surrounded by a dense ring of girls, started their strashnovatenky dance.
- I think they want us to come ... - with some doubt in his voice murmured Aletheia.
- Well, we use the kind invitation. Give me yours hand.
They crossed the threshold of the wretched shack and found themselves in a huge oval room.
Little monsters have gone missing, and when Tanais looked around, looking around, I found that the door through which they entered, disappeared too.
The hall gradually lightened, as if somewhere invisible lamps were lit, and when the glow became almost unbearable, because it had the tall fabulously beautiful woman in long white robes, loose folds of the drop-down to the floor, and welcomed their graceful bow.
