Hal touched his, thought of salt beef, and instantly did not want to go in three directions. He asked Limingo about it, who had him indicate those directions.

"Very good," he said. "One aversion, of course, is to that bit of beef on the deck there. The other would be to the hold where the provisions are kept. And the third would be to the galley, which suggests what we're having for the evening meal.

"All of you? Did you feel the same?"

All did, but two had only a single response.

"Good enough," Limingo said. "Each of you has his—or her, pardon milady—personal compass.

"So you can go flying now… and be content you'll be back aboard before the cooks finish boiling our meal into submission."

They started for the dragon deck.

Saslic noticed Farren Mariah had a long face.

"'Smatter, small one? You don't want to eat some fog?"

"'Tisn't that," Mariah said. "Just realizin' what small beer I'd be as a wizard. Not only havin' to pack-sack all that gear, and learn all kind of tongues, none of which anyone without a split tongue could ever speak aloud, but havin' such pretty, pretty assistants.

"Not my cut of beef at all. Pardonin' the expression."

Hal and the others took their dragons high, circling in the sheer joy of flying after so long, swooping, making mock attacks on each other.

As the sun sank and it grew colder, the ship's warmth called, and, one by one, they circled back to the Adventurer and its salt beef.

"That incantation Limingo was saying," Saslic said to Farren as they groomed their dragons. "It was damned poor poetry."

'"Twas," Mariah agreed.
