THE DARK CHAMBER
125
Surangama
My Queen, I have one prayer to make to you.
Sudarshana
You will not have to utter your prayer in words, Surangama. Whatever jewellery and ornaments the King gave me, I leave to you—I am not worthy to wear them now.
Surangama
No, I do not want them, my Queen. My master has never given me any ornaments to wear—my unadorned plainness is good enough for me. He has not given me anything of which I can boast before people.
Sudarshana
What do you want of me then?
Surangama
I too shall go with you, my Queen.
