Stormcrowe:
Dothalne the Beggar frowned up at the Guard. "Do demons have livers? That
seems so...ordinary. Livers. And what kind of steel? One hears things on the
streets, too, and people usually say COLD steel. What if it's a hot day? And what
if--"
Morgron thumped the beggar's head again. "You want to take down a demon," he
said severely, "you got to have FAITH. In your tools and your targets and yourself.
No what-ifs."
"But I just want the facts!"
"What good will that do? People tell you stuff they say is a fact, and what
they mean is, THEY think it's PROBABLY true." The guardsman shook his head. "Forget
what 'they say', Doth. Go with what YOU say. What you know or what you guess. Like
the old saying: 'Your guess is as good as mine'. Well, it IS, you know!"
After a moment, the beggar said, "I think that's heresy. Or maybe lese majesty.
Something like that, anyway. Where would we all be if people went around saying they
were just as good as anybody else?"
"We'd be in a good place," Morgron said firmly.
"I don't know, there are aspects to this you're missing. For instance, if you
and I are as good as anyone else on this island, why, there's no reason but cowardice
or treason for us not to do what we can to stop the Black Ship. Go to Vithicar and
dig them out, or fight demons right here on the bay, or whatever it takes. That's
the whole IDEA behind having, well, nobles and stuff. So THEY can do the dangerous
things."
It was the Ambitious Guard's turn to be silent for a long moment. Finally he
said, "I think you've got something wrong in there, Doth, but I can't put my finger
on it right now."

Near Willaf:
Lady Protector Goldenrod didn't like rowboats. Oh, no doubt they were fine in
their place, no doubt they had their uses, but she didn't like being out in the
strait in one. She said as much.
"This isn't a ROW boat," Old Gold answered, panting. Rowing called for a lot
more stamina than a fast arena fight did, and it used different muscles, too. He had
the sinking feeling, no, cancel that, don't want to think about sinking right now, he
had the unpleasant feeling that he was going to regret this activity tomorrow. "It's
a, what'd'ye'callit, a fishing punch?"
"Smack?" Chardinee asked. For a merchant, he was doing a lot better with HIS
oar. It seemed unfair. "Or maybe it's a dory," he added. "I'm not familiar with
the technical terms. But it's all the boat the two of us can handle, so...." He
shrugged.
"It's a boat, and you're rowing it," Goldenrod stated. "So it's a rowboat. And
why you think the Black Ship would bother to accost a ratty little rowboat like this-
-"
"When you scream, the pirates will know there's a woman on board," Old Gold
said, grunting with exertion. "Pirates always want to capture women."
"And women always prefer NOT to be captured! If you had paid more attention to
landmarks--"
"Let's not go into that again," Chardinee said quickly. "The lightning was
deceptive. What appeared to be reliable landmarks in the storm were not when we went
to check on the ground. But we still know the general area, and Lady Peach and the
others are watching there to make CLEAR identification of the spot when the Black
Ship emerges to capture us, and they will be there when we are taken back to their
base." The standby paused and licked his lips. "Has it occurred to you, Old Gold,
that while the Black Ship may want to capture Lady Goldenrod, they may have no
interest in the two of us?"
The new-made Lord Protector shrugged, but he looked uneasy. "It's a gamble," he
muttered. "It's the scrambled eggs thing. You know, first you break the eggs."
Goldenrod smiled, managing to look nasty at the same time. "And all the king's
horses and all the king's men--"
"Don't SAY that," Old Gold snapped. He glanced at the dark water around them,
hoping that there were no sharks in this area. Then at the sky, stars and a crescent
moon... and a mass of clouds boiling up out of north and spreading southward. There
had been no clouds when they'd set out.
"It's going to be a dark and stormy night," Goldenrod said. She shivered.
Lady Protector Peach Nutt leaned against a tree, which concealed her silhouette
from anyone who might be looking. "It's clouding over," she said. "It's going to be
hard to see what happens out there."
"We figured on clouds," Lord Protector Fool's Gold told her. He was sitting
nearby, giving a good impression of a boulder. He had experience with adventures.
That he wasn't alarmed was reassuring.
Peach's teammate, Lady Protector Moonjumper muttered something. It sounded like
"exciting times."
Fool's Gold laughed. "Is there any other kind?" A bolt of purple lightning
streaked across the sky from the headland above them to the clouds. "Showtime!"
The lightning hit nearby, striking the mast of a ship the gladiators hadn't
seen. It was a lot bigger than their vessel, and a lot closer than seemed
reasonable. How had it even gotten there unnoticed? Why didn't it catch fire from
the lightning? The whole thing glowed with purplish foxfire, except the figures
moving on the deck. They were shadows, dark and shapeless.
Chardinee glanced over his shoulder at it. "The Black Ship," he muttered.
"It's headed for us." He turned back to Goldenrod. "Maybe you should scream, so he
knows we've got a woman here."
"Oh, and that's going to be so subtle," she said, "a woman screams for no
apparent reason, of course they won't be suspicious--"
"You knew the plan," Chardinee said.
"I hadn't thought it through before, okay?"
"Oh, great, stage fright. Just what we need," Old Gold snarled. "Can't you--?"
Goldenrod flung out a hand in exasperation as she prepared to tell her teammate
that, no, she couldn't. And screamed in good earnest as something cold and soft and
slimy curled around her wrist.

Aljafir:
"But we didn't DO anything except fight monsters!" Lej Korranjal, the Ambitious
Guard said. Again. "Were we supposed to IGNORE the monsters?"
The chief of the Harbor Guards met his indignant eyes with a cold stare. "The
stability of our Glorious Empire," he said, "is founded on and maintained by the
principle that for each person there is a place and a proper task, and that no person
shall encroach upon the place and task of another. The defense of the harbor and
waterfront of Aljafir rests in the hands of the Harbor Guard. By striking at these
monsters instead of calling for that Guard, you have threatened the stability of the
Empire. Further, you incited a mob to violence, which is a capital crime in itself."
"But we just fought MONSTERS--"
Shagrath jabbed him with an elbow. "Leave it," the dwarf growled. "This is a
no-win deal." To the Harbor Captain, he said, "Where are you going with this?"
The man tipped his head back slightly, the better to look down his nose at the
two arena standbys. "That is an impertinent question from a criminal. I am
enforcing the stability of the Empire."
M. Konvalh Chardinee, standing at the back of the guardroom, leaned toward his
companion, Arenamaster Kharghal, and muttered, "This is a stacked deck, and you set
it up. What are YOU getting at?"
Kharghal shrugged. "Unless you want to join them, keep quiet and watch."
It was clear that wherever this was going, the place it arrived at was not going
to be a pleasant one, so the Chardinee closed his mouth. But this behavior on the
part of the arenamaster was not going to inspire confidence in any of the warriors
under his control. He returned his attention to the Harbor Captain, who was winding
up a harangue and getting down to verdict and sentence.
"So," the Captain said, "since your intentions were 'good' so far as they went,
it is judged appropriate to offer you mercy. You have a choice: You may serve the
Great Kjarran at the next sacrifice, or you may serve the Glorious Empire in a more
extended fashion under a one-year geas to the Lord Bazidhar of Salamar. What say
you, criminals?"
"We'll serve this Bazidhar, of course," Shagrath said. "As you knew we would."
The Chardinee glanced sideways at Kharghal. Bazidhar was one of the
arenamaster's cronies; they went carousing together. Although Kharghal didn't know
that Konvalh knew, and the Chardinee did not propose to tell him. The Society of
Chardinee reached into many unlikely places across the length and breadth of
Alastari, but that was no reason to advertise how much information flowed through
their network.
Shagrath put his hands on his hips and glared at Lord Bazidar. With bushy black
eyebrows and a big nose, not to mention a typical dwarvish beard, the assassin did
"glaring" very well. "Okay," he said, "you've got us. Now tell us what you wanted
us FOR."
Bazidar smiled, a slight movement of thin lips that did not make him look
friendly. "I was told you would be impertinent. Not that it matters." He leaned
forward and flipped open a scroll on the table that separated him from the two arena
warriors. It was a map of the northern part of the Karnhorn Empire, from east of
Aljafir west as far as Kurukar. "I am the Warden of what is, since the secession of
Kurukar, the Western Marches. The border I defend is continually assailed by
brigands and beasts and... I am not sure what. Some are natural hazards that have
existed forever, such as the bears and wolves who prey on isolated farmsteads." He
shrugged. "That is the Way of Things, and those who dwell on the edges of settled
lands will always face them."
Korranjal muttered something under his breath, which Shagrath did not ask him to
repeat. It was probably inflammatory. The Guard had come from just such a border
area and had said, more than once, that it wasn't "right" that predators should be
left to prey on the border farmers.
"The brigands...." Bazidhar frowned. "Some are wild Shews and others of that
ilk, some are, I believe, refugees from Kurukar. Some are alone, and others show
sign of being organized." He met the dwarf's glare with his own. "I will not have
organized brigands preying on MY border. You will go among them in the character of
fugitives from Aljafir, discover who leads the bands and where they are based, and
then return to guide my soldiers to the attack."
"What about the monsters or demons or whatever that you almost mentioned?"
Shagrath asked.
"That is a separate problem. One thing at a time. When I can be sure my
soldiers will not be attacked by brigands, then I can decide what to do about
monsters. Or whatever they might be."
"You say we are to go as fugitives," Korranjal said now. "Yet your men patrol
that border we have to cross, do they not? How are we to pass them?"
"Very carefully. The arena resurrects those who are so inept as to get
themselves killed. Be assured that I will not waste my resources in that fashion."

DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Well, Alexander, you have just learned (you DID say you were slow that way) one
of gladiatings great maxims: Arrogance goes before a loss. Don't slight the
practicing, pay attention, and you'll be here writing this column next time. You've
seen me fight, you know I won't be changing strategies, you can DO it, man.
Tabeta Unis
SPY REPORT
It's me, The Unknown Spymaster here with my bag to give you the news on last
week's fights. Don't these new hotshots make you sick (or, if they fought you,
hurt)? 2527 A.D., on their very first turn, went 3-0-2. Hey everybody, watch out
for KHALUM'S MIDGET, who flew up 24 points in the rankings after mashing VURZHAL UR
like a melon. Keep your eye on this guy. And falling like a basher in the top ten
was OBIDA PANIRI, who dropped 12 points after a disappointing (to say the least) bout
with MAXIMUS. Going for the gusto and coming up with aught but bloody knuckles was
HEROESANDFOUNDONES' MARSHALL, who was turned away from the Duelmastership by TABETA
UNIS. An apple a day keeps the doctor away, but an onion a day keeps T.P.s at bay.
Here is other news that is of note.
Death is kind of like a new puppy: he's always around wanting to play. (Ha
Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?). Yesterday I talked to the PROJECT MAYHEM
XXX's manager and ALEXANDER THE GREAT, slayer of HI-JINX. The manager: 'I think I
can, I think I can'. ALEXANDER THE GREAT: 'I already did'. Ask not the elves for
counsel, for they will say both yes and no. Silly buggers, eh?
Well, that wasn't too bad; Alarond told me that the people in ALJAFIR have no
sense of humor. Or maybe that they were senseless. C'mon, Leadfoot, let's make some
tracks. Hasta la bye-bye. (Loud choruses of 'Beat it, ya bum!')-- The Unknown
