Age Of Shiva (The Pantheon Series) - Plot & Excerpts
MCDUNN’S TAVERN WE LEGGED IT back to the antechamber, where the Avatars were already up on their feet and preparing to move. They might not have known exactly what the alarms signified, but anything making that raucous a racket was clearly not summoning people to dinner or prayer. The rumbles were their own kind of alarm anyway. The lights were flickering like crazy as well, another ominous sign. Aanandi led us to the emergency staircase. The freight elevator was not a viable option, not with the electricity supply faltering. Besides, it was glacier-slow. We could move faster on foot. The skeletal steel framework of the stairs zigzagged up a vertical shaft. Some way above us, multiple footfalls clattered. The site staff. We added our own clatter to theirs. Vamana had enlarged himself to the point where he could carry the unconscious Kalkin easily in his arms, but not so tall that he had to duck to avoid hitting his head. We charged up that shuddering staircase with the earth groaning and bellyaching around us.
