basement bit by bit by mail order and I'd really like to get module number

She stared at him. "I beg your pardon?"
"A cyclotron. It's a device for shooting atoms "
"I know what it is. I just never expected to hear of one in Husaquahr, let
alone the power to run it."
"Oh, one problem at a time. I'll work on the power later. Right now it's so
nice and long and complex it's sort of a work of art. Well, good luck."
Marge was feeling a bit dizzy. "Yeah thanks." And, with that, she walked back
out of the stable and into the morning sun.
Biy lured the potioned pair onto the ship with an offer of food and a very
large bed, which they took. The ratlike captain seemed confident that he and
some locals could contain the pair should they emerge, and urged Marge to get
some sleep. There was no chance right now to get them to take the potion, nor
any plan to do so, so the captain assured her that he and Audra would work on
the problem while she slept. If they were lucky, or smart, it was possible
they'd come up with something.
Dead tired and knowing she'd gone about as far as she

cabin and went to sleep.
Marge awoke to the smell of fresh paint and a general quiet, and she didn't
know whether this was a good thing or not. She quickly left the stateroom,
entered the galley, and found Audra there.
"Hi!" the nymph greeted her. "Well, things should start popping around here
soon, I guess."
"How's that?"
"We managed to keep our lovers pretty well happy here, with a few minor
incidents old Ruddygore's not going to like the town's damage bill, I'm
afraid and then this real creepy guy and this strange-looking girl came down a
couple of hours ago with a note from Ruddygore.
They zinged 'em cold with a wave of the hand and then examined them real
careful, you know? Then the guy looked at the stuff you brought and said it
might work, might not. Anyway, they're waiting up on deck for you now before
trying anything."
"And our lovers?"
"Still out cold in the other cabin." She walked out from behind the counter;
as she approached the left cabin door, it opened for her. It was pretty clear
what parts of the ship were, in a way, parts of Audra.
With the sun down. Marge's fairy sight and powers were at their full
potential. Both Joe and Tura were out cold, as advertised, and kept that way
by a strong local spell that was easy to see. Below it, their bodies seemed to
have a reddish-brown glow of a kind she had never seen before. This, then, was
the potion. Below that, she quickly sorted out the older spells and Joe's
curse and noted, with some amusement, that Tura now had deep and complex black
spell bands as well. Sometime during the day, Joe had bitten her for sure.
Interlaced, though, were newer bands that bore a far different signature than
any of the others. These, then, were what the Master of the Dead had added,
and what were, in fact, the greatest potential threat to undoing the harm.
Nodding to herself, she went back out and up on deck.
Biy was there, looking pretty tired. He'd had a very busy day that had started

early, and she felt sorry for him.
With him were the pair that Audra had told her about, dressed in long, black
cloaks and hoods. For a moment

a mere note. The Master of the Dead had been described as looking not too dis-
similar to the larger one.
They turned and put down their hoods when they heard her, and she gasped. [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
