"To beg you to " Then, in one instant, Derec made an hysterical gesture and Hoddan's stun-pistol hummed. A small object left Derec's hand as his muscles convulsed from the stun-pistol bolt. It did not fly quite true. It fell a foot or so to one side of the boatport instead of inside.

Then he realized that Derec's information about the fleet came from the spearmen he'd brought back, loaded down with cash.
