âTasslehoff!â
The kender opened his eyes. For a moment, he had no idea where he was or even who he was. He had heard a voice speaking a name that sounded vaguely familiar. Confused, the kender looked around. He was lying on top of a big man, who was flat on his back in the middle of a street. The big man was regarding him with utter astonishment, perhaps because Tas was perched upon his broad stomach.
âTas?â the big man repeated, and this time his face grew puzzled. âAre you supposed to be here?â
âI-Iâm really not sure,â the kender said, wondering who âTasâ was. Then it all came back to himâhearing Par-Salian chanting, ripping the ring off his thumb, the blinding light, the singing stones, the mageâs horrified shriek.â¦
âOf course, Iâm supposed to be here,â Tas snapped irritably, blocking out the memory of Par-Salianâs fearful yell. âYou donât think theyâd let you come back here by yourself, do you?â The kender was practically nose to nose with the big man.
Caramonâs puzzled look darkened to a frown. âIâm not sure,â he muttered, âbut I donât think youââ
âWell, Iâm here.â Tas rolled off Caramonâs rotund body to land on the cobblestones beneath them. âWherever âhereâ is,â he muttered beneath his breath. âLet me help you up,â he said to Caramon, extending his small hand, hoping this action would take Caramonâs mind off him. Tas didnât know whether or not he could be sent back, but he didnât intend to find out.
Caramon struggled to sit up, looking for all the world like an overturned turtle, Tas thought with a giggle. And it was then the kender noticed that Caramon was dressed much differently than he had been when they left the Tower. He had been wearing his own armor (as much of it that fit), a loose-fitting tunic made of fine cloth, sewn together with Tikaâs loving care.
But, now, he was wearing coarse cloth, slovenly stitched together. A crude leather vest hung from his shoulders. The vest might have had buttons once, but, if so, they were gone now. Buttons werenât needed anyway, Tas thought, for there was no way the vest would have stretched to fit over Caramonâs sagging gut. Baggy leather breeches and patched leather boots with a big hole over one toe completed the unsavory picture.
âWhew!â Caramon muttered, sniffing. âWhatâs that horrible smell?â
âYou,â Tas said, holding his nose and waving his hand as though this might dissipate the odor. Caramon reeked of dwarf spirits! The kender regarded him closely. Caramon had been sober when theyâd left, and he certainly looked sober now. His eyes, if confused, were clear and he was standing straight, without weaving.
The big man looked down and, for the first time, saw himself.
âWhat? How?â he asked, bewildered.
âYouâd think,â Tas said sternly, regarding Caramonâs clothes in disgust, âthat the mages could afford something better than this! I mean, I know this spell must be hard on clothes, but surelyââ
A sudden thought occurred to him. Fearfully, Tas looked down at his clothes, then breathed a sigh of relief.
