“ The lowest degree has a higher power than the highest degree. Why is that? I look at this way: the more and deeper that a person is inside a House, the more knowledge and power that they have over that House. But when the person is nearing the Door (the contract is coming into an end), so maybe this person is moving out,...the less power over that House that they will have. ”

“ Nasir made a plate of food for her, heaping bright green rice next to a red spill of the curried goat, layering slices of breadfruit by the edge of her plate. Feyi thanked them both awkwardly, then ate in blissful silence as flavors unfurled in her mouth, Joy would kill to be here. Feyi tried to remember everything so she could describe it to her best friend later, the way the breadfruit melted in her mouth, how easily the curried goat dripped off its bone, how fragrant the rice was. ”
