Aaron Cobham: Oviedo

Quotes 

• Oviedo : I like here.

  Lina de Cardonnes : In England or this tavern?

  Oviedo : Here, tavern.

  Lina de Cardonnes : Such a strange country. And they lock up their feelings, but mix freely with each other in the taverns.

  Oviedo : The Moor, too, can be free here.

  Lina de Cardonnes : Well, the Moors are free in Spain. Not to worship, but to live, at least.

  Oviedo : I speak to men of ships. They talk of la Inquisicion. Moors who would not be Christian, they leave Spain or they die. A horrible death.

  Lina de Cardonnes : What do you mean?

  Oviedo : The Inquisitors, they kill the Muslims, men, women, children. I have no news from my family, but I think I can never go back. Not now, never.

  Lina de Cardonnes : You could convert. My parents did.

  Oviedo : Lina, you no hear me. The inquisidores no care. You look like Moor, like me, you go back, you die. We make lives here now.

  Lina de Cardonnes : You sound like the Infanta.

  Oviedo : The Infanta will stay?

  Lina de Cardonnes : No. Nothing is certain. Nothing.

  Oviedo : [holds her hand]  One thing is certain... for me.
