Cassivale took my breath away from afar. The splendor changed
when we started up the drive, leading to a dilapidated fountain forming a
roundabout. A statue of a cavalryman took up the center of the fixture, a
heroic figure holding up a saber over his head with the steed rearing in a
classical pose.
I
assumed the water normally came from the beast’s mouth though it clearly hadn’t
produced anything but mold and moss for several years. The murky water took on
a green hue, the stonework cracked and brutalized by Pacific Northwest storms.
Despite the fact it stood more than twenty feet tall, it seemed diminished.
Diminutive even.
The
fact I could not remember it at all bothered me. I wanted to have some vision
of it in full glory. Sun beaming down from behind the head of the horseman,
water cascading out into the crystal clear pool. As we drove around it, I
doubted it had been cleaned since long before I was born.
Maybe
my parents kept me away from the thing.
The
front of the estate loomed over us nearly four stories. A flight of wide stairs
led up to a porch stretching around the house with Greek style pillars holding
it up. Those looked sturdy enough, though time definitely had a go at them.
Cracks in the wood were apparent long before I got out of the car.
Rodney
stopped directly beside the steps. I hopped out, taking the full brunt of a
stiff breeze from the left. I drew my coat tight about me, taking a moment to
look over the arched windows dotting the surface of Cassivale, some lit while
others remained dark. Like the upper stories, none of them appeared to be
broken, which surprised me.
Considering
the state of the fountain at least.
The
house boasted twenty-five bedrooms. It sprawled to the left and right, at least
a block in each direction. How had I been allowed to roam freely through those
halls as a child? Getting lost in the labyrinthine corridors, the secret
passages and dusty spaces no longer occupied.
It
seemed like a fantastic dream.
