'Sometimes he took the boat out – Armand’s black racer – and he let it drift in the Gulf as he lay under the stars. Once Gabrielle went with him, and I was tempted to listen to them, over all that distance, their voices so private and intimate. But I hadn’t done it. Just didn’t seem fair.'

This is an interesting relationship! It seems strange that someone as friendly as Khayman would get along so well with Gabrielle who is rather cold. Yet they do appear to get on very well, indicating they may have spent some time together after the Night Island gathering.
