A couple of days before the wedding, the pace increased. A small Rhion craft arrived from Hedron. Izramith happened to be at the Exchange and from the large window that overlooked the square, she could see Ydana and Amandra Bisumar come down the ramp, in the presence of their adopted children. They both wore the purples and lilacs of the Hedron Traders and, since the picture Izramith had seen of the couple, she had cut her hair even further so it was now short and spiked-up, like Mikandra’s. She also wondered why, as Traders and with at least two aircraft between them, they’d use a shuttle, but on further inspection, there were a lot more small shuttles at the airport. The Andrahar family had probably hired them to bring their guests to Barresh. Some people had entirely too much money.
