Dead, it might have been awkward, but alive...the little thief turned suddenly hysterical, shrieking and weeping, trashing wildly, and begging not to be given to "the burning eyes and flashing teeth." Ghenis finally had to knock Veleks out so that he and Harlund drag him into the rowboat. "He's nuts," Harlund growled, leaning into his oars as he drove the boat back toward the shore. "Burning eyes and flashing teeth. Sounds like some kind of kid's nightmare. He do some kind of drugs?" "Veleks? No. He's got a few bad habits, but not drugs. He must have seen something real...but maybe not really what he thinks he saw." "He couldn't've seen something like that, not on the beach he couldn't. There aren't any monsters in the woods around here." Harlund paused and looked around uneasily, looked down into the water, which was filling with the shadows of sunset faster than the sky was. "Might be different if he'd been in a boat to start with," the beach walker muttered. "He might've seen something over the water...." "Veleks can't swim and had no boat. He was not on the water," Ghenis said firmly. "Besides, I found what are probably his tracks. He was on the shore road and left it to run toward the beach, and I do mean run--flat out. Something terrified him. Veleks is no hero, but he wouldn't run without a reason." Harlund opened his mouth to argue further, then looked at Ghenis and shut it again. Smart move. "Just get us to shore, man. Then I'll pay you, and you can go home. It isn't your problem." *** ***** *** ***** *** Ghenis had the idea that it would have been harder, maybe impossible, to get rid of Harlund at any time earlier in the day. But it was sunset, and the beach walker seemed to have a strong aversion to being out on the shore at night. Which probably meant that the gladiator would be wise to get himself and Veleks off the shore before dark, too. Besides, he didn't want to meet his henchman's "burning eyes and flashing teeth" with Veleks on his hands either unconscious or hysterical. He draped the little thief over the saddle of his rented horse and glared at the beast. It probably wasn't a bad horse, as horses went, but neither was it outstanding in any way--it seemed unlikely, for instance, that it would take to carrying double. Which meant he himself was going to have to walk. He toyed again with the idea of buying a horse, a really GOOD horse. But, as at other times, he also thought about how much it cost to keep a horse in the city, whether he was riding it or not. His resources weren't infinite. And he didn't really leave the city and NEED a horse that often, so it wouldn't be a savings, not really. By the time Ghenis had reached this point, a familiar one, in his thoughts, it was twilight and he was back on the coast road, leading the horse. He paused before stepping out into the open. By the evidence of the tracks, Veleks had been on the coast road in the dark when he met his monster. Maybe it would be better to get under immediate cover instead of heading straight back to Zukal tonight. He'd passed an abandoned farmstead--courtesy of the invasion, most likely--on his way to the beach to meet Harlund. It wasn't any palace, but it would provide shelter and a defensive position, and it was nearby, a mile, maybe a mile and a half away. He set off in that direction, crossing the road and plunging into the brush along an overgrown track. The farmstead was as Ghenis remembered it, a stone house with half a roof, two or three wooden sheds that had mostly collapsed, a cluster of unpruned fruit trees. He led the horse right into what had been the main room of the house and dumped Veleks onto the ground. By the dark powers, the little thief had better have something useful to report after all this trouble! Veleks could sleep now, but by morning he'd better be coherent. *** ***** *** ***** *** Ghenis sat over the fire he'd made from scraps of lumber and watched the full moon ride across the sky. The night seemed long for the time of year, but that was subjective, he knew. It was about midnight now, with the moonlight turning the landscape into silver and soot. There had been owls hooting earlier, some other kind of night birds, rustlings outside the farmhouse that had nothing to do with the wind, but the night was silent now. He touched the amulet he wore under his shirt, wondering if he would see Veleks' monster tonight. That would be...interesting. A howl? There were wolves around the delta country, they'd come down out of the hills after the invaders had devastated the area. A chorus of howls, must be a pack. His horse was moving restlessly. It had a right to be uneasy, a pack of wolves was no joke. Ghenis wished briefly that he had a crossbow, but he didn't. He drew his sword and put more wood on the fire, checked to make sure that the remaining walls of the old house would protect him from the sides and rear. Another howl, closer, almost a hound-like baying. Other wolf voices answering. Definitely a pack, hunting in the moonlight. He touched his amulet again. The dark powers would not protect him if he stupidly put himself in the way of danger. Which he had not done tonight, he had prudently gotten off the road and taken a defensible shelter. With one hand on his amulet and the other on his sword, he waited. Shadows moved in ways that wind and trees could not account for. They gathered around the shell of the farmhouse; he glimpsed them through the empty doorway and the gaps in the wall. The shadows blinked at him with eyes that were not burning but cold as the moon overhead. Wolves. Big wolves, given how far off the ground those pale eyes were. A lot of big wolves. But they weren't trying to get at him. More kept arriving, causing an ongoing stir of shadows. He didn't try to count them. Didn't really want to know how many wolves there were out there. And then, suddenly, there was something else, with eyes of flame and a spear tipped with icy moonlight. Human in shape, more or less, and mounted on something that might be a horse but probably wasn't. It lifted a horn and blew, and the sound was a wave of fear. Veleks' monster. >)]H[(< + -----:----- + >)] The Free Cities #63 [(< + -----:----- + >)]H[(< Riztab: With all the snow of the winter just past, the lake was higher than usual. At least two feet higher, Spymaster Torric guessed, looking at the water that now stood waist high in the doorway of the old arena records building. He hadn't liked going in there to hunt for old records when the water was barely up to his knees. Now... no. No way he was going in there; anything could be hidden by that dark water. "What idiot made the decision to leave the records down there, anyway?" Jorja, manager of Sweet Magic, asked. "It's so stupid!" Torric shrugged. "Gladiators and managers don't have the copyright on stupid," he said mildly. "I'm not sure if it was Arenamaster Rillion or First Citizen Makrok who made the decision, but the other one concurred in it." "Sounds like maybe the both had something to hide," Garfield, manager of Arena Felines, murmured. "I wonder what?" "Don't we all," Torric responded. That Rillion tA and Makrok should have a secret they had succeeded in hiding offended him. He was supposed to be able to find things out, and so far he hadn't scratched the surface on that. "Are the records even THERE?" Garfield asked. "Maybe Rillion tA just said they're stored down here to keep you from finding out that they're gone." "They were here a little while ago." Torric frowned. "Four years? Five? Something like that, I think--but I know the records still existed back then, whenever, because I consulted them to find out about the earliest teams here. For Sleepy, that was. Then something came up--the invasion, I think? Anyway, I didn't go back. But--" He jumped as a crazy howl floated over the water. "I hate coming here so late in the day," he muttered, glancing anxiously to the west. The sun was slipping behind a bank of clouds. "If somebody's messing around in the records storage, late in the day is the time to watch for him. Be glad we can't see in the dark and watch after sunset!" Jorja advised. "Huh. I wish now I hadn't mentioned that Jaguar saw someone down this way." Garfield eyed the dark water with disfavor. "Better I should have stayed at the guildhouse and whacked him a couple of times for wandering around where he shouldn't be." The howl came again, from far out over the lake. A chorus, several voices saluting the coming night. "Loons," Torric said uneasily. "We always have some loons on this lake. Horrible birds." "It sounds more like wolves to me," Jorja countered, "or even hounds." "Not on the lake!" "I know, but--" Another chorus of howls, this time accompanied by a deep-throated hunting horn. "It IS hounds!" Garfield backed up a couple of steps. "I don't like dogs." "And I don't like anything that can hunt on the surface of the lake," Jorja agreed. She backed up with him. Spymaster Torric was already behind them and edging farther back. "But I'd like to know what it is." "It's us cats that are supposed to be curious," Garfield reminded her. "Yeah, but it kills you cats. Don't want that--who'd I have to talk to?" She stiffened, staring out over the water intently. With the sun sinking into the clouds and the forest shadowing the lake anyway, it was hard to be sure, but she thought something--bigger than any water bird--was moving out there. The horn blew once more, a long note with more chilling menace in it than anything either manager had heard. The horn call was backed by the baying of the unnatural pack. The twilight took the shape of a pack of tall hounds and three lean horsemen sweeping forward across the glassy surface of the water. "They're headed for the old records building," Garfield noted in a steady voice. "I don't think I want to hang around to welcome them." "Right." Jorja joined his retreat. She shivered a little in the night air. "This calls for strong drink in a warm, crowded tavern." * }%|[-----+O+-----]|%{ * }%|[-----+O+-----]|%{ * }%|[-----+O+-----]|%{ * ---===FREE BLADES REGIONAL NEWS===--- Duelmasters ----------- DM 9 ZUKAL (turn 467): TREMERE of DARK TOADS (TigToad, mgr.)

DUELMASTER'S COLUMN Notes from the arena champ. Consider it a lesson in humility or something, King Bear. You'll need that when you go to the Isle, as you doubtless will. Finn P.S. I wish I could believe someone was noticing this excuse of a column. P.P.S. Or even the fights, or the arena itself. SPY REPORT If you were disturbed from your beauty rest only to have to watch a bunch of MURSKA brutes like you, you'd be grouchy, too. Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see DINGO win a fight and gain 15 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, DINGO beat HUNTERSTOCK and HUNTERSTOCK lost 14 points. You're breakin' my heart. And if variety is the spice of life, MURSKA may be getting bland, as FINN stays top dog in the city. Kickbacks and bribes, kickbacks and bribes, how else do you think some of these guys win their fights? Skill? Ha! Well, let's take a look at some more misdeeds of you miserable sword-boys. What's the big D? CHILDREN OF LLYR was the most avoided team? Bunch of lily livered... grumble... mumble... curse... And who led the way in this mass act of cowardice? Let's see, well, whatcha know? It was THE BEARS. Ha ha ha ha! HUNTERSTOCK was challenged more times this turn than the Duelmaster. Now was the DM insulted or feared? Heh, heh. Death and Taxes. The less death I see, the more it taxes my patience. Let's see if anyone's dead or dying. Titanium shields and bamboo daggers, guess what brave team is developing these kinds of weapons? There's got to be a better place in MURSKA to get a drink than The Dragon's Hangover! Any suggestions? Phlllt! Just had to do that before I leave the fine city of MURSKA. I feel much better now.

Such an epic demands a sequel. Therefore, Master Darque and Jack Wolfspider are pleased to announce the return of the Stormcrowe Slaughterhouse. Where? Stormcrowe DM 45 (slow). When? The Slaughterhouse returns on Turn 207, due August 19. How can you get into the action? Bring a team (one per entrant please) to arena 45 and announce your intention to join the contest in the Personals. Rules: This time around the rules are very simple. Each warrior win against a higher rated opponent (one or more points higher in the ratings) brings you 10 points, against even rated opponent 7 points, lower rated 5 points. Wins against NPCs or by a warrior who downchallenges are worth 0 points. Points are doubled for kills. All warriors in the arena whether participating in the Slaughterhouse or not are fair game. Points are totaled weekly, and the contestant whose team has racked up the most points at the end of 10 turns is declared Slaughterhouse Champion. Prizes: To be announced; we're still talking with RSI about it. Figure it will be something pretty good. But hey, who needs prizes when the honor of being Slaughterhouse Champion awaits!
