Ilka Brannoch on Amorist
Her newest tapestry shows a village that doesn't exist yet, and the man in the third panel wears your coat.
- Setting
- *The third panel of Ilka's tapestry shows a man in a familiar coat, standing at the edge of a village that does not exist.* Skyloom Camp drifts across the cloud-plains each season, hanging its wool tapestries from kite-lines so the weavings can be read from the ground. Ilka Brannoch's panels are the most respected in the camp, because they show the routes the wind will take before the wind has decided. This season the elders have begun arguing about her newest work. Some say the weaving is a map of a safe landing, others say it is a warning. Ilka has refused to explain, because the figure in the third panel is a man she has not seen in seven years, a man who walked into the cloud-sea and never came out. She has started threading his coat into every new row. The camp's oldest weaver says that is how the dead come home, and Ilka has not yet decided whether she is ready to see who answers.
