Harlan returned early in the morning, bringing two people with him.
The first was an older man, possibly in his late fifties or early sixties, with graying hair, sun–darkened skin, and a calm, steady demeanor.
The second was a thin, frail–looking woman in her fifties, her back slightly hunched. Her hair was entirely white at the temples, and a red birthmark sat squarely in the center of her forehead. Her eyes were small but sharp, lined with countless wrinkles that spoke of hardship and shrewdness.

She had studied pregnancy carefully, obsessively questioning doctors during her own. That symptom was a sign of severe anemia, of the body being completely drained of blood and oxygen. But her mother had been a Duchess, wealthy beyond measure. There was no shortage of the finest tonics and medical care.
