Episode 9.1: Signum

 

Recentiī Septimō dē exāmine dīxērunt, et dē cavō, et dē signō in brācchiō. sed dē virō tacuērunt; nōmen Sinistrī nōn dīxērunt.

 

Septimus audiēbat, gravis et quiētus. nōn eōs urgēbat; vidēbat enim eōs commōtōs esse. ubi fīnem fēcērunt, brācchia iterum spectāvit. "hoc signum," inquit, "adhūc mihi sīcut rubor in cute vidētur. sed tamen mē movet. nōn omnia intellegō."

 

paulum tacuit. deinde: "audīte mē. quiēscere dēbētis. Sextus enim semper dīcēbat..." subitō tacuit, et oculōs āvertit. vultus eius ad breve tempus mūtātus est. "sed Sextus nōn adest," inquit tandem, vōce molliōre. "ego adsum, et vōbīs auxilium ferre volō."

 

Recentiī tacēbant; intellēxērunt. Septimus surrēxit. "venīte: cibum habeō, et multa dē Britanniā dīcere volō. nōn estis īnsānī."
