Get me some wine, will you?’ Swan put a hand on his hip, as he had learned when he was a royal page. ‘Words of courtesy would make me the more willing,’ he said. ‘I am not your servant.’ ‘Are you not?’ asked Drappierro. He glanced at Swan. ‘Never mind, then.’ He read his document further and said, ‘Fetch me a servant, will you? There’s a good fellow.’ Swan went back on deck. He wasn’t welcome forward, with the sailors, nor amidships, with the oarsmen. The cabin had just become a little too close. He found a place to sit out of the wind where the stern cabin joined the rowing deck, pulled his heavy cloak around himself, and prepared for a long voyage.
