CHAPTER EIGHT

“Then why are you here” I asked her.

“To make sure your team does no further damage,” she told him. “I decided it was much too dangerous to send any of the younger sisters into it and I came by myself.”

“Then how did you know the way to placate the gods who rule here?” I asked her. She continued to stare at me.

“I know many things, captain,” Chamistra told me. “I know when this universe began and will end. I know about the man who died and left you the box. I know what happened in the caves below the insane asylum. And I know you will sleep with me tonight.”

There wasn’t much I could say after that announcement. So I stood up and walked over to one of the side temples near the square. I had a lantern with me and didn’t worry about being lost. I’d told Grom to take the first watch and he stood on the northern end of our encampment with his gun. I was certain it was a role to which he was accustomed. He nodded as I walked past.

“Try not to get lost, sir,” he told me. “You friend Howard will take the one after me and Tommy the final watch. We’ll have you up and ready in the morning.”

“I won’t go far,” I told him as the lantern swung from side to side while I walked past him.

I held the light up and looked at the carvings in the stone. There were thousands of individual figures that lined this side of the temple. It was easy to tell the king, he was always the central figure in whatever orgy was in progress. This was a little bit different from the archaeology I’d studied in school where you’d catalogue and sketch out scenes of religious scenes or battles. Most of the powerful and influential men of the past wanted scenes to show their conquests and influence in the affairs of men. The kings depicted on these temples wanted the world to know how many women he’d been with, what he did and how many times he did it. If ever an entire city section was Not Safe For Work, this was it.

I thought about Chamistra and what she’d told me. She knew about the previous game too. Was I supposed to accept her as my wife as well? All I had to do was find her and the answer would be there. I looked up and watched the moonrise over the jungle in the distance. Usually, the forest was noisy with countless monkeys, birds and insects that made their presence known in the evening. But it was very quiet around here. I hadn’t seen any animals or any swarms of bugs inside the city. I’d thought Chamistra’s women kept it clean, but she’d told me how they avoided it.

“Told you I’d be back,” I said to Grom as I walked past his alert form. Did that man ever sleep?

“Sir,” he stopped me as I went past.
