Fawnlum charged, as if she was going for the chest wound. Felldrake back-stepped, held Baneck out of the way, and breathed another blast of fire at her. The blistering onslaught completely engulfed her, and sent a wave of heat radiating all around for everyone in the crowd to feel. Fresh cries of grief and anger…
He Got in a Couple Good Licks
Baneck held his sword high, and shouted, “Diergon in Victory!” The cheering turned into a furious thunder around him. Then, suddenly, to Fawnlum’s shock, he slapped the flat of his sword against his shield, muttering a strange series of words, as if he was casting a spell! Felldrake narrowed his eyes, and reared forward. He…
Flashback: Never Trust an Agreeable Man
Fawnlum did not hear her. She was staring, but seeing nothing. Looking helplessly on, with her strength and skill useless, her thoughts drifted. Her mind went back, desperately and futilely thinking of the night before, when she could have prevented this. <*> <*> <*> She called in greeting to Baneck, as she walked up to…

Then she and her attendants went on, leaving Fawnlum with new thoughts, and troubles. After a few moments, the young warrioress walked from behind the cover of the wagon and rejoined the revelers, staring straight ahead but seeing nothing.
