In the small cubicle Lithe was claustrophobically aware of Zen's presence.
Everything about him was too broad, too strong, too big in every way and he was puzzled that he could feel safe yet overwhelmed by his nearness.
No matter how Lithe tried he could not get used to handling such a hazardous mix of emotions.
"I know I have been very vague about my background and my family but I promise you that once we reach the outskirts of Allerdyce all will be revealed."
