The subtle eroticism of this chapter is so artfully executed. I love the dialogue between Aric and Antisthenes about the implications and potential blowback result from their going forward with that timeworn treatment for hypothermia and frostbite. It’s also interesting how Anaiti half-consciously is following what’s going on and noting Aric’s tattoo and deliriously laughing on the inside at the threadbare state of his undergarments.
