The City of Chieri
Alessandro isn't a callous man and the woman's screaming fit has shaken him even if he shows none of it. It was a terrible fate and a warning to the young man of the dark side of high sorcery. There would always be people ready to inflict horrors for the most petty of reasons. Assuming, Alessandro reminds himself, that this Oriana wasn't simply subject to justice for some horrible past crime of her own. Mustn't let a pretty face sway a business deal.
Still...there was little point in having a person suffer so if there was something he could do. A thought occurred to the trader's son.
"I'm not surprised", Alessandro agrees with steady voice,"the process required of you is awful. Whoever she is exceeded basic humanity in her revenge."
da Vigo! Don't let a pretty face and a woman's pain make your plans for you! Alessandro thinks wryly to himself, still repulsed by the whole thing.
Decision made Alessandro adds in a strange voice, "I am sure that you, Oriana, will find the process you need to make this whole procedure nearly painless very soon."
An hopeful expression of good will and concern rolls off his tongue like the passing toll of a enormous church bell. The world shivers as a god speaks and drives his wishes into the warp and weft of the future. A wish that forges a mere future possibility into a absolute certainty, wishful thinking into true prophecy.
