aldersprigInterlude: Ambrus
by Lyn Thorne-Alder
The first time he’d walked these halls, they’d been terrifying. His footsteps had echoed, the collar around his throat had weighed strangely on him, and it seemed that everyone was staring at him.
More than two decades later, it didn’t seem as if much had changed. There was carpet and paneling now, discrete drop ceilings and nooks that further broke up the sound. There were students here now, filling the halls, lounging in the dining hall, exploring the library. Ambrus was a student now, with a new twist on his name and a proud place in the Sixth Cohort. And if there were children of his in every Cohort here (he was fairly certain there were, although there were still holes in his memory), well, he still looked young enough to be a student. And he was still woefully ignorant enough to require the education, too.

Hold on, I’ll find the specific chapter that explains it all.

Date: 2017-04-04 03:07 am (UTC)I hadn't realized there was so much older stuff....
And then I followed "New Readers Start Here" to Chapter 1: Shahin, remembered reading it before... just 8 months ago?!... and read my own comment on it...
So that's why. Oddly enough, I haven't gone on and read through everything chapter by chapter, or if I have, I don't remember it all. Oh, well...
