The Orb And The Spectre (Book 2) - Plot & Excerpts
One of the two prisoners the Karai had hung upon frames, the man who had taken an arrow in the thigh after Issul cut him down, had lacked the strength to survive the shock. The other, whose name was Aurfusk, seemed to be recovering, though he still lacked use of his hands. With Aurfusk the victorious company was now ten strong. Issul had the able-bodied assemble in the compound. "All of us are free beings once more. Some of us have homes to return to, loved ones to seek out. Others may not. For my part, I return to Enchantment's Reach where my home lies. Some of you, I know, travel also in that direction, part-way or beyond. Our chances of survival are soundest if we stick together. I occupy good station at the city-castle and can promise remuneration for those who choose to follow me there. But should any choose otherwise, you may go with my blessing and thanks." "I was brought here from my farmstead in the south," said one man, named Carkin. "That is the way I must go." Two others were of similar voice, the rest chose to remain with Issul.
