Gronan and Robilar stood facing each other, in stony silence, for at least 15 minutes. They were sizing each other up, seeing if one hoped to win some last minute revenge on the other. But each man realized that they were both as tired and sore as Tenser and Terik. What's more, they each regarded each other now, not with hostility, but with respect. The fight was not in them anymore and it was time to talk this out.

LOL! Yeah after all that turmoil, who knew there was respect between them?
ReplyDeleteFirst you have to know your enemy, then respect your enemy, and then kill your enemy...unless it's really early in the morning and you're tired, and then you just let them go to Blackmoor.
ReplyDeleteSo where do we go from here, Scott?---is this the break that jumps forward into the second portion of Ch2, where Mordy, Robilar, Terik, Murlynd, Tenser, and crew are running around and falling into pits---or, do you have more in store for us before then? :D

SPOILERS ABOVE here, for those who haven't read the novella version. But, you're right, that's coming up real soon...in chapter 3.
