Other sitars came in illusively, till they snared the current of human blood in a golden mesh and measured its flow to the time of mounting emotion. Then Neela Deo himself Neela Deo, the Blue God! appeared at the stockade gates alone, with Kudrat Sharif on his neck. His caparison was of crimson velvet, all over-wrought with gold thread. The gold fringes were a yard deep.
Kudrat Sharif is a graceful man, with much dignity; but I always felt he held something in reservation." "What about Nut Kut?" Skag asked. "Nut Kut is a great black elephant, trapped in the Vindha Hills only a few years ago. He's young and I've heard he's a dangerous fighter. My son likes him; but I can't get over believing he's responsible for the high nerve tension the boy always carries.
Then turning to the men on the ground, the strange mahout said wistfully: "Look on me with compassion, oh men of honour and of fame! I have heard of you, but you have not heard of me." "We have heard of you, that you are the making of a master-mahout, in due time," answered Kudrat Sharif.
Kudrat Sharif had been raked off Neela Deo's neck and was scrambling to his feet on the ground. In one glimpse I saw his dothi was torn and a long dripping cut on one thigh. He shouted, but I couldn't make it out, because all the elephants were trumpeting to the universe.
Neela Deo had regained his dignity; he was gravely driving fragments of black and yellow stripes into the sand patiently finishing his job. But Kudrat Sharif's voice had no effect upon the others; and the Chief Commissioner was entirely helpless. No one could prevent their going. Then it appeared that one had not gone one other, beside Neela Deo.
He went in with a charging challenge that was intoxication to those who heard all the assurance of ancient mastership in it. No one had ever seen Neela Deo fight before. Kudrat Sharif was so astonished that he barely got back from his neck in time to be out of the way. The mahouts were amazed Neela Deo did not fight! Neela Deo was the Lord of peaceful rule!
