[Private to the Admiral, visible to Angelica]
I don't know, M. Admiral, whether you heed requests from inmates, but I see no harm in trying.

Once I had a small metal brain-teaser puzzle, small enough to fit in a pocket. One half was a ring carved with a labyrinth design, the other half a broken ring that had to be passed through the other half to ( Read more... )

Certainly, Mrs Cobb. You should find it in your room as soon as you care to look.

If the Admiral does not heed your request, I shall bring it to his attention myself. Would this puzzle be a totem, madam, or simply a reminder of home?

Somewhat to my surprise, he has provided.

And yes, it is a totem. I thought it would be good to have one again.

Aye, it has, madam. I must apologise for the tone I struck with you during the prior week. I was terribly unfair to you, and certainly not myself.

It feels strange to have one again. And it works just as I remember it did, the same special trick. I would show it to you, but of course you know why I can't.

I understand, of course, and I hold nothing against you. But where are you? I have seen your husband, but not you.
