The main hall of the Albrecht estate was decked to the nines. Elegant padded chairs had been set in neat rows before a platform, half-hidden behind a deep blue curtain behind which the auctionees shuffled and waited for their names to be called. Off to one side of the hall were a series of benches for those not involved in the date auction; off to the other side was a long table with items of varying value and small plaques denoting less than physical rewards—an offer of "healing services" by one Darius Delacreux had drawn a number of interested onlookers who were debating whether "healing services" meant something else entirely. |
