The boat noses into the far bank. Behind you, the oarsman folds himself around his empty lamp.
The black-glass tooth rests against your heart. It is the first key, and it makes a larger darkness inside your lantern: one more flame will fit there now.
You do not learn his name. For a long time you hear the oars moving after the boat has vanished.
