Summary
It’s been almost two hours since Henry and Adela had administered the potion to Sir Thomas. Henry has the utmost confidence in his own alchemy skills, but the sight of the feverish man worries him all the same. If the Captain doesn’t wake up in time…
“...pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death—”
Henry’s voice catches at the last syllable.
“—Amen.”
The final bell rings clear and cruel as the cawing of carrion crows.
Hans hesitates to do anything that might disturb the moment.
He’d usually rush to fill any quietness with words. Stillness is risky—it leaves him to wander in the hallways of his mind, and he isn’t sure he could face what lies behind the doorways. But with his most trusted companion here, it doesn’t seem so frightening at the moment.
The first chapter is Henry's inner thoughts during For Whom The Bell Tolls, adding the missing scene between the near-death-experience and the moment he and Hans are ready to meet von Bergow. The second chapter is the night that follows, again told through Henry's POV, and the third chapter is Hans' perspective of that same experience.
