Simple? There?s nothing simple about a dance in Amber!
Worth to Solange: It may not be as simple as it seems when you’re planning it on the dance floors of Amber. “

Benedict takes a drink and says [of Merlin]”He fears shadows, that boy. But he’ll learn.”

Jovian turns and grins openly at them both. “What a splendid example of
vulpine cunning, to lure the moon from her passage in the sky! And such
splendour, indeed, to fill the heart with inspiration.” He offers
Cambina a wing (unbarbecued, I tell you!) and bows over her hand.
“I was just on my way to have some refreshment - shall we repair
together to the ice palace? I wonder,” he adds thoughtfully, but with
a mischievous grin, “how the effervescence would affect visions scried
in its reflecting pool.”

Dancing to Amber?
“I regret that it is mainly the second,” the moth gives him regretful answer, then quirks her head a bit, a thought occurring, “Though it occurs to me that between the two of us, we could put together a sort of ‘phylogeny of dance’, as it has diverged in Amber and in one of the Courts… With enough experimentation, of course.” She’s grinning brightly, laughter in her eyes.
“All dances lead to Amber. Or something along those lines,” Reid chuckles.
“Do all dances come from Chaos?” Aisling muses, and then smiles. “Have you ever been there, my lord?”
