I'm one of those cool dudes that think they're the only ones in the world that like newsboys, and they're actually not. Me? oh I don't like the city... no way. I like the country, nothing but it. Mad cartoonist also I am. Mad person also I am. I will be intelligent when hell freezes over, and all that sort of thing... ENJOY my blog
Chapter XXII
They talked about their
journeys. Theron recited about his fall down the cliff and the others filled in where they came in. The bard sat silently smoking his pipe and listened intently. Every now and then he would interrupt them to tell them to go back to some earlier part of their story and sometimes he would rush them onto another further part of it.
When they finished their talking and all sat around the fire gazing at it with round eyes, The Bard suddenly growled;
‘H'm-m, nasty piece of work those groveling Quezillians are they not?’
‘Eh?’ said Theron inquisitively.
‘Hum? oh, nothing,’ he replied.
At that the Bard pushed himself out of his chair, and walked out of the room with the others looking after him. He slammed the door as he went out in the manner that shook the house slightly.
Garathorn Raised his eyebrows at the others and they returned it.
Garathorn Picked up the spare smoking pipe that the Bard had given him, Smoking it thoughtfully.
His teeth were clenched around the pipe strongly. He began to murmur something through his teeth, Something that no one could have understood even if everything was silent and they were listening carefully.
After a whole hour of silence Théron suggested getting some sleep. Gladroth yawned and padded up the stairs to the bedroom. Théron waited for Garathorn but presently he saw that it didn't seem as though he would be coming in a while, so he went up the stairs by hmself in the dark. He went past the bard's room and Suddenly heard a growling, hissing sound and he pressed his ears ot the door and was frightened as there was a ferocious scratching at the door. No light showed through the crack under the door so he presumed the room to be in darkness. He heard a sniffin at the sides of the door and he became quite afraid and even more so whenn he heard the scrambling sound of someone climing out of a windo and then the dull pattering sounds of a four footed animal running away.
Presently he heard, in the distance, a terrifying Howl and then all was silent.
He listened for five minutes more and then went up to bed. He lay in his bed, although it was not a very comfortable bed it was comfortable enough for him to sleep well. But this night he was not tired even though he had had a very weary day and had felt tired all throughout it, When it came to the night, he could not sleep!
It was one whole hour until Garathorn came up to bed. He slept on the floor with a sheet over him.
Presently his breathing changed and Théron could tell he was asleep. After anohter half hour he heard the front door opening and shutting, he heard the bolts being drawn across and he sat up. Presently he heard the stairs creaking as someone came up. He slowly walked to the door and peered out. He saw the Bard's hand just shutting the door. His pointer finger was covered with fur, and a sharp claw potruded from the end. Then the door closed and he couldn't see anything more. He waited and presently he heard the sound ot snoring and he closed the dor and got back into his bed. But for the rest of that night he could not sleep.
* * *
The morning came, Théron was the first to rise. It was before anyone was awake that he got up and went out side to get some fresh air. The forest in front of him was wet with dew and the air smelled fresh as ice. Presently he heard the sound of footsteps inside and he went back into the house.
