The heavy door swung open into a hall larger than any room Katerrina had ever seen. Even larger than the training rooms back on Ossus. The table took up half the space. Candelabras made the shadows flicker.
She took as deep a breath as she could in the gown. Katerrina was more nervous now than she'd been in any of her training sessions. Being blindfolded on top of the tower destroying objects that could kill her was looking very appealing. The chill in the air made gooseflesh prickle on her shoulders. Katerrina didn't dare rub at it.
Master Travanix was seated at the head of the table furthest away from the door. Which meant a longer walk in the four-inch heels. Katerrina let the door close behind her and walked towards the table. She was again careful to pick up her skirts. The last thing she wanted to do was trip again.
Her expression was neutral. Only her stormcloud eyes showed she was still not happy with the dress.
