"Don't let Clarend hear you say that," Lars remarked with a good attempt at genuine humour "Hmmm, too right." And Killa grinned back at him, reminding him of abuse they'd both taken from the Cutter over the decades.

"You'll lend us the double sled then?" Killa asked.

She looked out of the broad window, beyond the Hangar. "Hell, it's only midday. We could be deep in the Ranges and cutting in a couple of hours." She leaned across the desk towards him, daring him, silently urging him to agree. "Of course, if you happened to have some black crystal coordinates handy, I could be productive on several levels." "Killa, you do know what you're doing, don't you?"

"No, but Donalla thinks that thrall will help her get past the barriers I can't seem to lower." He sighed deeply and threw his hands out in capitulation. "If you could come back with some black . ." He set his lips firmly, hearing the desperation in his own voice.

He propelled himself out of his chair and, while Killashandra contacted the Hangar and arranged for his sled to be readied and stocked, he demonstrated to Donalla the various ways in which thrall could be broken.

"I didn't realize thrall was that dangerous," Donalla said, her eyes wide with the newly acquired information. "And you let Killashandra stay thralled to green "That was a most unusual situation.

Killa needed the overdose of crystal to counteract deprivation. I would never have permitted her to thrall to black.

It's far harder to break out of. And that's why I don't like just the pair of you going."

"Well, if you want another singer along to see where we've cut black - - -" Killa teased.

"There isn't another singer in or you can believe I'd send someone." "Who's that dork at Trag's desk then?"

"Certainly not yet a singer," Lars said sarcastically, "but she does have business management experience and she's capable of organizing pencil files and auditing accounts." Killa smiled, relieved by his disparagement of the very pretty girl's abilities.

"Now, if you can't break thrall by any of the methods I've demonstrated, you club her behind the ear and haul her bodily out of the Ranges. You are checked out on sleds, aren't you?"

"You know we all are, Lars," Donalla said, giving him an almost condescending smile.

"I've even driven some of the worksleds when there was excessive storm damage to patch up." Lars nodded acceptance of her competenceee. "But I'm not charmed by the idea of bludgeoning Killashandra Ree into submission. I'll bring along something soothing."

"You have to be careful, though," and Lars held up a warning hand. "A singer in thrall can become violent. Strap her down in the sled if it comes to that."

"Now that you've given her the worst case scenario, how else can you scare her out of this attempt?" Killa asked in some disgust. She turned to Donalla.

"Anyone would think he didn't want this to succeed.

I've never slugged him yet. Though I might start - - -" And she lifted her fist in mock anger.
