It took Dael a day or three of following the young man around to figure out his name was Quintus and Quintus had named Dael, against his will, Angel. Dael tried to correct him, but Quintus couldn’t seem to wrap his name around the syllables and Dael was stuck, to dismay, with Del. Quintus did simple jobs, mostly carrying things around the massive house, moving furniture and transporting firewood into the upper rooms.
Dael was just learning his way around the house when the old man reappeared and dragged Dael where Quintus had showed him he was never to go.
