I saw why we had taken a tumble on our exit. Brodie’s wooden front door was raised on a concrete step. The time machine door had also raised, but hinged itself half a meter too far left for the step. The two doors matched except for one detail. Where my eyes met a flower-etched panel of foggy glass on Brodie’s dark door, our time machine had the “translator key” watch. I could see the metal socket from the backside of the open door as well as the front.

I am highborn, actually, (does it surprise you? I can see that it does.) by way of my father’s seventh cousin’s wife’s mother. She was the wife of Hilu Ka. (If you’ve forgotten already, he was our king.) She becomes important later on, but it doesn’t do to bring certain people into the story too quickly, so you shall hear about her later.
