Claude's Epic 9
"You called for me, Mr. Knightly."
Vlad came into the private library of Mr. Knightly at four a.m. He just came from traveling and went directly to meet the man who asked for him.
"You came in two days. What a record."
William smiled. He poured some tea for Vlad and asked him to take a sit, facing Mr. Knightly.
Vlad was not fond of English tea made in an Italian household. And he would never drink something he doesn't like, not even out of courtesy. Mr. Knightly put his cup down and asked:
"How did you make it from Siberia, in two days?"
"With some hardship."
"You were in a concentration camp."
