Frost Fair
1
TWO MEN SAT ON A BENCH ON THE ICE.
Between them a brazier glowed with hot coals, its metal feet sinking into a pool of meltwater.
They sat silent, in the heart of the Frost Fair; in its racket of bleating sheep, barking dogs, innumerable traders calling their wares and, above all, the ominous hammering. Meats sizzled on spits, babies screamed, jugglers threw jingling bells, fiddlers played for coins, and in cushioned booths Sekoi of all colors told spellbinding stories, their voices unnaturally sharp and ringing in the bitter cold.
Finally the older man stirred. “Are you sure?” he muttered.
“I heard it in Tarkos. Then again last week in Lariminier Market. It’s certain. ” The cobbler, still in his leather apron, stared bleakly out at the black Watchtower in the center of the frozen lake, as if afraid its sentinels could hear him from there.
