My Father Comes

Grayscale illustration of a finely-dressed, young woman reaching for a candlestick as she turns to greet a man in the window.

Fedalma senses that her father is coming to visit her at night and indeed Zarca appears in the window. They discuss how he lost her and he asks her to acknowledge her Gypsy heritage and follow her duty as a Gypsy. (Book 1)
