Panels 1, 2, and 3 are in a row in a sequence. In this sequence, Norsa looks at the stairs off-panel with a thoughtful look. Basho notices this, scoops her up in his arms to hold her, and smiles. She’s startled at first but smiles back. Panel 3: Tall panel, Basho carries Norsa up the stairs. Norsa says, “Thank you, Ma’oor. My knees just aren’t what they used to be.” Basho asks, “What did you do while I was away?” Norsa says, “Stay in the guest quarters on the ground floor.” Panel 5: The doorway at the top of the stairs frames this shot, of Basho reaching the top of the stairs. Norsa, still in his arms, says, “We are replacing the guest mats right away. They are NOT comfortable enough.” Basho, smiling, says, “Palace life has spoiled my wild woman.”
