| Prince Tramennis gestures excitedly. | [edit] |
| I mean he terrifies Charlie! | [edit] |
| A collage of images show Parson and Maggie perusing items in the Armory, observed by a grim-faced twoll. Maggie touches the haft of some unseen weapon as Parson inspects a spear and a ball-topped cane. Also on the long table are a sword, a C-shaped red bracelet, a red-heart-in-clear-heart amulet, and a blue bomb.[1] Parson straps a large bracer bearing several blades[2] to his right arm, then walks off wearing a light brown cloak. On top of this we see images of a long sword and Wanda's old skull-topped staff. | [edit] |
|
Prince Tramennis: Where's the harm in it, really? It's not as if he could pull the same trickery that got Ansom. | [edit] |
| Prince Tramennis comes around to King Slately's side. Tramennis' many papers are now all stacked in the satchel on the desk; Slately's are still out. | [edit] |
|
King Slately: I don't know. Prince Tramennis: Besides, I want to ask Ossomer some questions about Decryption. | [edit] |
| A twoll helps Parson buckle on his sword. Parson is wearing a hide cloak and bladed bracer and carrying a staff. Maggie stands to one side and all around them are items that went unchosen, including bladed pads and helmet, shield, and swords. | [edit] |
|
Prince Tramennis: Honestly, what could they do? King Slately: I don't know. Perhaps bomb the tower? Prince Tramennis: Mm, with the yellow dwagons, yes. | [edit] |
| Several dwagons, including many yellow dwagons, bearing black-and-red clad Gobwin Knob warlords, hover over a cloud, safely out of range of the scores of tiny Jetstone archers that fill the landing of the huge tower of Spacerock. | [edit] |
| Prince Tramennis: We'll just have to make them move off first. | [edit] |
| Tramennis tugs at King Slately's hands to pull him out of his chair. | [edit] |
|
Prince Tramennis: Come on, let's go.[3] You want answers as badly as I do, Father. King Slately: Unlikely. | [edit] |
| A closeup of Parson's grim face is laid against an image of him stalking the hallway with Maggie trailing meekly behind. | [edit] |
| Prince Tramennis: Come! What's the worst that could happen? | [edit] |
| King Slately uses a hook to retrieve his red cape off of a standing coat tree while looking offscreen over his left shoulder. | [edit] |
|
King Slately: The worst? The Titans could hear you ask such a question. | [edit] |
