The disinfector was working overtime, clothes were poured upon us from all the other hospitals. Another alarm that wounded were coming, but they never came. In their place an English clergyman arrived from Krag. Next day the wounded came, many more than had been expected. Jan got rather strong signs of inflammatory rheumatism threatening, so he went to bed for a couple of days with salicylate.
"How is it that your people are so unadventurous? I seem to be the only one travelling from curiosity." "What do you mean by 'your people'?" "True you don't know that I don't belong to your planet at all. I've come from another world, Polecrab." "What to find?" "I came here with Krag and Nightspore to follow Surtur. I must have fainted the moment I arrived.
The officials looked helplessly at each other. Jan recognized her as one of the Stobart unit from Krag: she had got astray from her band, but was now rejoining them. We roused ourselves at seven a.m. A damp, chilly fog was hanging low over the valley, it penetrated to the skin, and one shuddered.
If she asks you to do anything, refuse it outright." "The poor soul looks harmless enough." "Yes, she does but the poor soul is quite capable of swallowing up Krag himself.... Now, play the man." The murmur of their voices seemed to attract Tydomin's notice, for she now slowly turned her eyes toward them. "Who killed him?" she demanded.
"It looks like an obstacle, for Nightspore informs me that the start takes place from the top." "But your other doubts are all removed?" "So far, Krag, that I now possess an open mind. I am quite willing to see what you can do." "Nothing more is asked.... But this tower business. You know that until you are able to climb to the top you are unfit to stand the gravitation of Tormance?"
"The reason I ask is I've seen its afterglow, and it produced such violent sensations that a very little more would have proved too much." "Because the forces were evenly balanced. When you see Alppain itself, it will reign supreme, and there will be no more struggling of wills inside you." "And that, I may tell you beforehand, Maskull," said Krag, grinning, "is Crystalman's trump card."
But the library, like all the other rooms, was foul with stale air and dust-laden. Maskull, having flung the window up and down, fell heavily into an armchair and looked disgustedly at his friend. "Now what is your opinion of Krag?" Nightspore sat on the edge of the table which stood before the window. "He may still have left a message for us." "What message? Why? Do you mean in this room?
"Whatddye think you're doin'! Tickling 'em with a straw! That's a bayonet you got there, not a tennis rackit. You couldn't scratch your initials on a Fritz that way. Put a little guts into it. Now then!" He had been used to the old Krag, with a cam that jerked out, and threw back, and fed one shell at a time.
"Do I bind it up?" asked Maskull, scowling with pain. Krag spat on the wound. "Pull your shirt down, it won't bleed any more." He then turned his attention to Nightspore, who endured his operation with grim indifference. Krag threw the knife on the floor.
"But the whole thing is ridiculous. Our brains are overexcited by what took place in there. Let us go home, and sleep it off." Krag detained him with one hand, while groping in his breast pocket with the other. He presently fished out what resembled a small folding lens. The diameter of the glass did not exceed two inches. "First take a peep at Arcturus through this, Maskull.
