I stood on the balcony watching him for a long while, yet another of the impoverished wanderers recently seen making their aimless way about the vale. If aware of my presence he gave it no evidence, moving with the feral grace of an animal caged against its will. His silence spoke certain of previous circumstancial determination stolen by unfortunate claim. Waist-length hair darkened by filth beyond its true color fell heavily over shoulders that whispered of strength starved and withered. "Stay a moment," I called down to him, for unexplained reason unwilling to let such a man pass without acknowledgement.

He lifted a hand to shield hopeless dulled eyes from the bright morning sun. Rather than answer he merely adjusted his gaze upon me as he halted.

"What's your name?" I persisted.

"Varyn Manica," he replied in tone muted by wary hesitation.

Manica.

I needed no further assurance to substantiate my intuition. "Please come inside," I bade him.
