The Warden comes apart into sticks. For a moment, they look like a man lying down to sleep.
The hound presses its collar into your palm. WREN, the little brass plate says. Not the hound's name. Its master's.
At the shore it barks once. A faceless ferryman looks up. You speak the name, and a face returns to him like a reflection returning to still water.
