Dustfinger forced a smile on his face. "You didn't do it", he said. Playing on sympathy too much was just as bad as not getting any at all.
And then he thought of something else. What if he was not because of a curse drawn here? He hadn't experienced this before but they all were able to know a Silvertongue when they saw him. And he had not met one yet that was good at it and experienced. So maybe one like that would cause such a pull?
After all he had heard there was one on this island and not all that far from here.
"Is there someone here who spends a lot of time with books?" he asked Gabriel.
Of course he could also avoid books, but they were all drawn to books. Even those who did not read aloud to keep things from coming out or going in. It was not likely that any Silvertongue avoided books completely.
