the  Royal  Treasury  to  this  end;  and  how  Master  Osman  was  using  this

opportunity  to  sabotage  his  Enishte’s  book  and  punish  those  who  betrayed

him  by  imitating  the  Europeans。  Black  added  that  based  on  style;  Master

Osman suspected Olive was responsible for the horse with the clipped nostrils;

but as Head Illuminator; he was convinced of Stork’s guilt and would turn him

over  to  the  executioners。  I  could  sense  he  was  telling  the  truth  under  the

pressure of my sword; and I felt like kissing him because he gave himself over

to what he was saying like a child。 What I heard didn’t worry me; having Stork

394

out  of  the  way  meant  I’d  bee  Head  Illuminator  after  Master  Osman’s

death—may God grant him long life。

I wasn’t disturbed that what he said might happen; but by the possibility

that it might not。 Reading between the lines of Black’s account; I was able to

glean  that  Master  Osman  was  willing  not  only  to  sacrifice  Stork;  but  me  as

well。 Considering this incredible possibility made my heart quicken and drew

me  toward  the  horror  of  plete  abandonment  felt  by  a  child  who’s

suddenly lost his father。 Each time this came to mind; I had to restrain myself

from cutting Black’s throat。 I didn’t attempt to argue the point with Black or

myself: Why should the fact that we made a few foolish illustrations inspired

by European masters lower us to the level of traitors? Once again; I thought

that behind Elegant’s death stood Stork and Olive and their schemes against

me。 I removed the sword from Black’s throat。

“Let’s  go  to  Olive’s  house  together;  and  search  it  from  top  to  bottom;”  I

said。 “If the last picture is with him; at least we’ll know whom to fear。 If not;

we’ll take him with us as support and go on to raid Stork’s house。”

I told him to trust me and that his dagger was enough weaponry for the

two of us。 I apologized for not even having offered him a glass of linden tea。 As

I lifted the oil lamp from the floor; we both stared meaningfully at the cushion

upon which I’d flattened him。 I approached him with the lamp in my hand

and told him how the ever…so…faint cut on his throat would be a mark of our

friendship。 He bled only slightly。

The  motion  made  by  the  Erzurumis  and  those  pursuing  them  could

still be heard on the streets; but no one noticed us。 We were quick to arrive at

Olive’s house。 We knocked on the courtyard door; the door of the house; and

impatiently  upon  the  shutters。  Nobody  was  home;  we  made  so  much  noise

that we were certain he wasn’t sleeping。 Black gave voice to what we both were

thinking: “Shall we go inside?”

I  twisted  the  metal  loop  of  the  door  lock  using  the  blunt  edge  of  Black’s
