Those at the threshold raised their swords and peered within. Abruptly Rador was between them. One dropped his hilt and gripped him the green dwarf's poniard flashed and was buried in his throat. Down upon Rador's head swept the second blade. A flame leaped from O'Keefe's hand and the sword seemed to fling itself from its wielder's grasp another flash and the soldier crumpled.
Now truly is my heart wrung, for there are few I would less like to see dance with the Shining One than you, Serku," he ended, softly. Livid now was the gateway's guardian, his great frame shaking. "Come with me and speak to Yolara," he pleaded. "There came no message tell her " "Wait, Serku!" There was a thrill as of inspiration in Rador's voice.
"Strike up the band" came O'Keefe's voice "here comes the hero!" He strode into the room. I am bound to say that the admiration in Rador's eyes was reflected in my own, and even, if involuntarily, in Olaf's. "A son of Siyana!" whispered Rador.
"They do not like to dance with the Shining One," was Rador's constant and only reply to my efforts to find the cause. Once I had concrete evidence of the mood. Glancing behind me, I saw a white, vengeful face peer from behind a tree-trunk, a hand lift, a shining dart speed from it straight toward Rador's back. Instinctively I thrust him aside. He turned upon me angrily.
The yellow flagons were set before Larry and me, the purple at Rador's hand. The girls, at his signal, again withdrew. I raised my glass to my lips and took a deep draft. The taste was unfamiliar but delightful. Almost at once my fatigue disappeared. I realized a clarity of mind, an interesting exhilaration and sense of irresponsibility, of freedom from care, that were oddly enjoyable.
Then, to my intense embarrassment, without warning, two of the black-haired girls entered, bearing robes of a peculiar dull-blue hue. At our manifest discomfort Rador's laughter roared out. He took the garments from the pair, motioned them to leave us, and, still laughing, threw one around me.
