Aster arrives at her mother’s narrow house that evening. The living room glows with lamplight and shadows: framed genealogies, a crooked portrait of an ancestor who looks suspiciously like Liora, and walls hung with talismanic tapestries. Liora opens the door wearing a cardigan the color of burnt honey. She embraces Aster with a familiarity that is almost claiming. The locket between Aster’s fingers becomes a small percussion instrument in the hush.
