"I'd rather risk the voices," Fred says after a moments thought. "If
the voices turn out to be some type of ruse, we run! If not, we beg help
from Synizn….since that's why we went looking for him in the first place.
"Now," Fred says worriedly, glancing up at the blackened overhead. "What
the mage should be doing in such a forsaken city that the gods have obviously
pissed upon….I know not. But what I do know is that I fear risking using
a magical device that I have no real understanding of….more than I fear
this fell city!"
"So," Astra smiles. "That about sums it up for me!"
The desperate demi-foxes gather up their belongings and then jump onto
the bespelled warcharger (who had somehow got caught up in….whatever had
happened and had stood quietly by as the lawyer had died). The ride off
quickly, noting how the horse's footfalls are strangely muffled by some
aspect of the pavement underneath. A few momments latter they are passing
a whithered grove of trees….when they hear a THUD and then…..voices…….
Voices that echo all around!!

And
such a strange thing the voices say!
Go Back
