It
seemed
a
funny
way
to
avoid
someone
,
but
Sophie
supposed
wizards
had
different
standards
from
ordinary
people
.
And
she
shortly
discovered
that
the
castle
had
other
peculiarities
.
They
had
finished
eating
and
Michael
was
piling
the
plates
on
the
slimy
sink
beside
the
bench
when
there
came
a
loud
,
hollow
knocking
at
the
door
.
Calcifer
blazed
up
.
“
Kingsbury
door
!
”
Howl
,
who
was
on
his
way
to
the
bathroom
,
went
to
the
door
instead
.
There
was
a
square
wooden
knob
above
the
door
,
set
into
the
lintel
,
with
a
dab
of
paint
on
each
of
its
four
sides
.
At
that
moment
,
there
was
a
green
blob
on
the
side
that
was
the
bottom
,
but
Howl
turned
the
knob
around
so
that
it
had
a
red
blob
downward
before
he
opened
the
door
.
Outside
stood
a
personage
wearing
a
stiff
white
wig
and
a
wide
hat
on
top
of
that
.
He
was
clothed
in
scarlet
and
purple
and
gold
,
and
he
held
up
a
little
staff
decorated
with
ribbons
like
an
infant
maypole
.
He
bowed
.
Scents
of
cloves
and
orange
blossom
blew
into
the
room
.
“
His
Majesty
the
King
presents
his
compliments
and
sends
payment
for
two
thousand
pair
of
seven
-
league
boots
,
”
this
person
said
.
Behind
him
Sophie
had
glimpses
of
a
coach
waiting
in
a
street
full
of
sumptuous
houses
covered
with
painted
carvings
,
and
towers
and
spires
and
domes
beyond
that
,
of
a
splendor
she
had
barely
before
imagined
.
She
was
sorry
it
took
so
little
time
for
the
person
at
the
door
to
hand
over
a
long
,
silken
,
chinking
purse
,
and
for
Howl
to
take
the
purse
,
bow
back
,
and
shut
the
door
.
Howl
turned
the
square
knob
back
so
that
the
green
blob
was
downward
again
and
stowed
the
long
purse
in
his
pocket
.
Sophie
saw
Michael
’
s
eyes
follow
the
purse
in
an
urgent
,
worried
way
.
Howl
went
straight
to
the
bathroom
then
,
calling
out
,
“
I
need
hot
water
in
here
,
Calcifer
!
”
and
was
gone
for
a
long
,
long
time
.
Sophie
could
not
restrain
her
curiosity
.
“
Whoever
was
that
at
the
door
?
”
she
asked
Michael
“
Or
do
I
mean
wherever
?
”
