[for Hiram Eldouir]
Drystan swept in as quiet as when he'd left, a breath of mist ghosting across the ground. There and then not as he sped between the blades of grass, between tree and rock, with the stars of the night sky streaking through the fisheye perspective he had when he was all mist and no body. He slipped in between the cracks, up the stairs.
Mist condensed into flesh and bone, blood and muscle, the closer he got to Hiram's quarters. It was a handy trick to form a hand at the end of a wisp to grab a pair of pants so as not to be completely naked. By the time he reached his cousin's room, he was mostly solid except for his feet. They were still swirling mist instead. Which was his usual now more than it had ever been in Lorendale.
He gave a sharp rap on Hiram's door.
