Temple Of The Traveler: Book 02 - Dreams Of The Fallen - Plot & Excerpts
After Jotham disappeared from the Temple of Sleep, there was silence for several beats. Zariah and the soothsayer were both confused. The giant guardian perched over the Door swiveled its eye to search for the intruder, but the stage in front of the Door was empty. The rings of bunk beds were still infested with humans like ticks on a deer. Lacking a target, the guardian continued to watch, pretending to be an immobile work of art. All acolytes who weren’t already congregated near the front doors abandoned their cleaning duties to drift up the amphitheater ramps toward their leader Zariah. Ekvar used the cover of the rice paper panels to creep ten paces to the foot of the stage. He drew his dagger and prepared to slit the throat of the sleeping guardsman nearest him. Bjorn lowered himself gently to the floor and untied the rope. Pulling a spear from the wall rack, the man searched for the best way to strike at the handmaidens and the traitor Nigel. To throw with lethal force at any distance, he’d need to get a running start.
