He rose purposefully from his desk and the two hurried to one of the warehouses.
Now the desert had an ally, the grassy fingers avoided the downtown district, feeling purposefully and dangerously toward the aqueducts. I spent much of my time, when not actively watching the grass, in the Intelligencer office.
