Four hundred and twenty-four steps.
This is the farthest that Tito has ever walked. As Dante Alighieri said in Canto III of his Purgatory, a good slingsman could still hit him with a stone. But as I stand, cradling my chin in my hand, it seems to me that a good slingsman could hit anyone with a stone, however far he walked.
Tito resumes his walk. I stop counting his steps.
