"He did as his masters demanded. Today that included wearing white. Loose white trousers tied at the waist with rope and a filmy shirt with long sleeves, open at the front. White clothing for a killer was a tradition among the Parshendi. Szeth had not asked, but his masters had explained why. White to be bold. White to not blend into the night. White to give warning. For if you were going to assassinate a man, he was entitled to see you coming"
