"I would take them with me, to the place of my afterlife, so a doctor from the future may look at them," Teja had said, when he had once more found Adalgoth by himself, with his baby daughters, who were screaming so badly that the men could hardly speak against the noise.

Adalgoth stared at him.

"I would take you, also, if you may enter my door."

That was far more acceptable. Teja was quietly amused -- much as Adalgoth revered him, he would not let his king's ghost take his tiny daughters to the next world.

Sensible.

So they walked to the barrow-hill, Adalgoth carrying the babies, marvelling at the door when Teja opened it.

But he could not pass the threshold. Like an invisible wall, the strange place pushed Adalgoth away; in the end, Teja took the babies and stepped within, promising to be back in no time at all.-
