We wait. The General looked around for a likely place to sit and found a large rock where he could lean back. He sat down and said, The really bad thing is that I have no idea what to expect next from those monsters in the dome. The good thing is that come early morning tomorrow, well have three times the soldiers to throw at them. Something tells me, said Erik, sitting down nearby, well need them. Kaspar remained standing and looked toward the sphere as if he could somehow see it in the dark. Softly he asked, But will that be enough? Joachim of Ran was nervous. He was nervous every time it was his turn to watch the ten thousand motionless Talnoy. He was also nervous because the only other magician from Sorcerers Isle who was on duty was no older than he wasbarely twentysix years of ageand he had even less experience as a magician, and was sound asleep outside. The Conclave had been taking care of these . . . things, for some time now, Joachim assumed. He didnt really know much beyond his instructions, which were to watch them in shifts with other magicians who came and went from Sorcerers Isle, do nothing, but make sure someone knew if anything untoward occurred in this vast cavern. Joachim was not entirely sure what exactly untoward, meant, but he was entirely sure he wouldnt like it if he knew. He couldnt help how he felt; these motionless things in the vast cavern below were unnerving, standing row upon row like monstrous toy warriors, each in identical armor, each as unmoving as the rocks surrounding He blinked. Did one of them move? He felt his heart pound 319 raymond e. feist and his skin puckered with gooseflesh. He looked hard, but he could see no sign. It must have been some trick of the night, a game of the mind, he decided, yet still his heart raced. Should he call Milton, the other magician? Taking a deep breath to calm himself, Joachim thought he would only be mocked if he did. He applied himself to needlessly adjusting the single torch stuck in the makeshift sconce above him, and decided it was the flickering of the light that had caused the illusion. No wonder the mind played tricks. He was once more astonished at how far the illumination carried in this otherwise pitch-black hole in the ground. He took another deep, calming breath, and turned his attention back to the tome in his lap. After his first stint of guard duty here he had decided to at least keep current on his studies. He was not the finest scholar in the Conclave and needed to refresh his memory on the more convoluted cantrips, and he had particular trouble with the ones written in Keshian, as he was not a very good student of languages. He turned his attention to the page and after a while became lost in trying to master an especially odd phrasing.
