Gaven screams. Camden pushes himself off the wall to run. It is a mistake, but maybe it wouldn’t have mattered. Camden feels his limbs slacken, feels cold, wet cobblestone on his face. He remembers he has not told Lillah where he was going. She had asked him to accompany her to the theatre, where she would perform that night, and he had declined. Another mistake. Would that, too, have made a difference? Does anything?
