ook of a satyr´if one discounted the misshapen body and the sole remaining pincer。
   Pharaun shuddered。
   ;Very well察─Quenthel said at last。 ;Speak the release word察Pharaun察and let Belshazu find his way back to the Abyss in his own time。 When the ice melts。;
   ;I will´as soon as the rest of you are safely out of here。; Careful not to get within range of the remaining pincer察Pharaun skated around the demon on the ice and climbed back up to where the others stood。 He looked around察then asked察 Where's Ryld拭
   Danifae察who had already fought off the worst of the poison and risen察shaking to her knees察answered察 We heard 。。。 a noise in the tunnel behind us。 Just before 。 。 。 the demon freed itself。 Ryld went to see       what it was。;
   ;He should have e back by now察─Pharaun said察a touch of worry in his voice。
   Quenthel glanced at Jeggred and jerked her chin。 The draegloth loped up the tunnel and returned察a few moments later察with the head of a broken crossbow bolt。 He handed it to Quenthel察his nose twitching。
   ;Blood察─he grunted。 ;Ryld's。;
   ;We should go after him察─Pharaun said。
   He started up the tunnel察but Quenthel caught his arm。
   ;You're not finished here yet察─she said察indicating the demon。 ;And there's no point。 The weapons master will either catch up to us or he won't。 We've got to get moving察or we'll be trapped in this dead end。 That bolt came from the bow of a surface elf。;
   ;She's right察─Valas said。
   Grudgingly察Pharaun nodded。 Even wounded察Ryld could take care of himself。 He'd catch up to them eventually。 Yet察since the warrior's absence had been pointed out察Pharaun felt it keenly。 With Ryld gone察there was no one in the group to watch his back。 Or to banter with。 If Ryld was dead察Pharaun would miss him。 Perhaps for days。
   Quenthel glanced down at Danifae察who was still on her hands and knees。
   ;If you're quite finished lolling about察then get up察─Quenthel told her。 ;We have a ship to find。;
   The vipers in her whip hissing with derisive laughter察Quenthel followed Valas out of the cavern。 Jeggred growled one last time over his shoulder at Belshazu察then loped after his mistress。
   As soon as he was certain Quenthel could no longer see him察Pharaun bent and offered Danifae his hand。 She gave him a calculating look察as if deciding whether to vent her pent´up anger upon him察then she allowed him to help her rise。 He supported her into the tunnel察then turned and spoke the words to a spell before hurrying after her。
   Belshazu shook its remaining pincer at Pharaun's back。
   ;I will see you again察mage察─it roared。
   Pharaun chuckled as he scrambled up the tunnel and said察 When Hell unfreezes察Belshazu。;
   Which it was unlikely to do察since Pharaun had just cast a permanency spell upon the ice。
   
Chapter Six
   The surface world was cloaked in darkness by the time Ryld emerged from the tunnel。 He had traveled for some time after leaving the others in the cavern。 A full moon hung above the tree´tops察half hidden by clouds but still casting so much light that it impeded his darkvision。 The snow that covered the ruined temple was covered with footprints察but Ryld was able to pick out those belonging to the cleric and warriors of House Jaelre。 They led in one direction only´into the tunnel。 The escaped cleric hadn't returned that way。
   Ryld scanned the trees察searching for any sign that more of House Jaelre's warriors might be lurking in the forest。 Seeing none察he crept out of the tunnel mouth。
   A moment later he heard a soft察melodic whistle。 It was a tune he recognized。
   ;Halisstra拭─he whispered。
   Halisstra negated the spell that had rendered her invisible and rushed察over to embrace him。
   ;Ryld ─she exclaimed。 ;I thought you weren't ing back。;
   He tried to ask why she'd doubted him察but she pressed her lips against his察kissing him。 For several long moments he returned her embrace察feverishly drinking in her scent and taste。 She was alive Then he remembered the warriors he'd killed´and the cleric who had gotten away。
   ;We can't stay here察─he told her。 ;House Jaelre is on our trail。 I ran into one of their scouting parties below。;
   ;I know察─she said察surprising him。 ;I saw three of them pass through the woods察just after sunset。 I made some noise察and they were drawn this way。 They didn't find me察even though they searched for a long time after finding my gloves。;
   ;I'm glad察─Ryld whispered fiercely。 ;No need to worry about them now察though。 They're dead。;
   He heard her draw a sharp breath and thought she was reacting to his words。 Then he realized that it was his grip on her arm that had prompted the gasp。 She was wounded。 Turning her arm察he saw a puncture just below the spot where the sleeve of her chain mail ended。 The wound had been healed´probably by magic´but freshly so察since it still pained her。
   ;I think I got your gloves back察─he said。 ;What happened拭
   ;Stirges。 Dozens of them察but they're dead now。;
   ;How拭
   ;I blasted them with magic察then made myself invisible。;
   ;With your lyre拭
   When Halisstra shook her head and grinned察Ryld blinked in surprise。
   ;How察then拭─he asked。 ;Has Lolth reawakened拭
   Halisstra laughed scornfully and said察 Let's check。 Are you awake察Lolth拭Can you see this拭
   Smiling fiercely察she made a blasphemous gesture察flipping her hand palm´up察fingers curled in the sign for a dead spider。
   Ryld cringed察but several heartbeats later察when nothing happened察he slowly allowed himself to relax。
   Halisstra smiled and patted the hilt of the sword she'd taken from Eilistraee's cleric。
   ;I've found a new way to work my magic。 I don't need my lyre´or Lolth´any more。;
   Ryld nodded察disturbed not so much by her blasphemy but by the fear of what would follow。 Above them hung the moon´symbol of the god who had driven Lolth out of Arvandor。 Was Halisstra about to be claimed by Corellon or one of the other surface gods
   Trying to ignore his own question察Ryld glared at the ruins of the creator god's temple。
   ;We should get moving察─he said察more harshly than he'd intended。 ;This place is dangerous。;
   Halisstra stared at him a moment察then nodded and said察 Let's go。;
   
   With a quick motion of his hand察Ryld caught Halisstra's attention。
   Be still察he signed。 Then察do you hear that
   They had walked for the rest of the night through the forest without hearing anything but the pattering of the rain that was melting the slush underfoot察but from somewhere ahead came the sound of an animal's howl。 It was answered a few moments later by a second howl察somewhere to the right察that ended in a series of brief察excited yips。 The yips had a pattern察almost like that of speech。
   There're at least two of them察Halisstra signed back。
   Ryld nodded。 He peered into the forest but the light of the rising sun察slanting in through a crack in the heavy cloud cover察was ruining his darkvision。
   Halisstra reached for her sword as she signaled察They're ing our way。
   Yes。 And they're moving fast察but。。。 He listened for a moment and heard a high´pitched yelp of alarm。 They're not hunting。 They're fleeing from something。
   A grim look on her face察wet hair dripping onto the shoulders of her armor察Halisstra drew her sword。 Curiously察she did not ready it but instead reversed the blade and held the hilt to her lips。
   Levitate察she said with her free hand。 Hide。
   She pressed her lips to the hilt and blew察and a haunting music filled the air。 An instant later she disappeared。 The only way Ryld could tell she was still there was by looking at the ground。 The spot where no rain was falling marked where she stood。
   As the howls and yips drew closer察Ryld touched his brooch。 He rose silently into the air through sodden tree branches察then paused at a height of about ten paces and readied his crossbow。 A moment or two later察he heard a rustling in the underbrush。 An enormous gray´furred animal that walked on four spindly legs burst into sight察running full out with its ton
