The other two turned towards us, and quickly made their farewells, Wagner and Bernibus departing for their quarters, and the King to escort me back to my prison. He took my arm in his genially, though only superficially so, for he still had a subdued sense of distrust about him, and we went through the door to the long, circling stairway from whence we had come. As we ascended we engaged in small talk, the usual meaningless pleasantry, which I assume you have probably had enough of in your experiences to allow me to dispense with relating it, for it was of no weight in any of the circumstances that I found myself in, and I especially was not interested in it, as the paper given to me by Bernibus claimed my whole attention, and filled me with an anticipation and mystery of what it might contain. E ME VERY INTERESTED INTO WHAT THE PAPER WOULD CONTAIN HIS FACE QUICKLY RETURNED TO ITS ORIGINAL COUNTENANCE AN IMPERMARABLE BARRIER TO HIS INSIDES AND NO ONE EXCEPT MYSELF HAD ANY INCLINATION ABOUT WHAT HAD HAPPENED THE OTHER TWO TURNED TOWARDS US AND QUICKLY MADE THEIR FAREWELLS WAGNER AND BONABAS DEPARTING FOR THEIR QUARTERS AND THE KING TO ESCORT ME BACK TO MY PRISON HE TOOK MY ARMIES GENIALLY THOUGH ONLY SUPERFICIALLY SO FOR STILL HAD A SUBDUED SENSE OF DISTRUST ABOUT HIM AND WE WENT THROUGH THE DOOR TO THE LONG CIRCULING STAIRWAY FROM WHENCE WE HAD COME AS WE ASCENDED WE ENGAGED IN SMALL TALK THE USUAL MEANINGLESS PLEASANTRY WHICH I ASSUME YOU HAVE PROBABLY HAD ENOUGH OF IN YOUR EXPERIENCES TO ALLOW ME TO DISPENSE WITH RELATING IT FOR IT WAS OF NO WEIGHT IN ANY OF THE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT I FOUND MYSELF IN AND I ESPECIALLY WAS NOT INTERESTED IN IT AND THE PAPER GIVEN TO ME BY BARNABAS CLAIMED MY WHOLE ATTENTION AND FILLED ME WITH AN ANTICIPATION AND MYSTERY OF WHAT IT MIGHT CONTAIN
