blackbladebitch: (zodiac with violin)
From "The Flaneur des Arcades de l'Opera", in The Metatemporal Detective, by Michael Moorcock. This is from the end of the story, where Zenith is explaining to Sir Seaton Begg and his sidekick Taffy Sinclair exactly where he comes from. (If I'm not mistaken, the "dynasty" he refers to is the Von Bek family, of which Sir Seaton is a cousin, whose members feature prominently in Moorcock's novels, and into which several characters have been retconned.

I am one of those sorcerous aristocrats. The island where I dwell is called, as far as I can pronounce it in your language, Melniboné. )
