MEANWHILE
-------------
The Witch was cursing with oaths that would turn an experienced curser pale.
She was standing in a hall of dark marble.
It was lit with some strange light, but one couldn't tell where it was coming from.
The Witch was still wearng the lavender dress, but there was a hole in the stomach, and she still had the bloody mark of a dagger.
She was cursing foully.
The man, if you could call it a man, sitting on a throne atop three shallow steps in front of her, regarded her the way a master regards a slave.
"Don't blame random chance for your failures, everything that went wrong was due to lack of foresight."
The Witch looked up, her eyes flashing.
"What did *I* do wrong? What could I have done instead? They all knew what was going on because of that cursed scum Surmantis!"
She stared at the floor.
"With him out of the way I could have gotten what I went for!"
The man laughed.
An ugly laugh.
He was wearing a black robe and a coronet of the same material the hall was made of.
"There's no point in 'what if's."
He narrowed his eyes at her.
"The point is that you failed me.
Again."

Lily suddenly had a wary look on her face. "Yes..." She said expecting to be bombarded with questioned about him.
Lore looked from Sarah to Icek. "To bad for those people..." Lore said and laid down. "I'd hate to be them right now." Lore gave a little laugh.
Icek nodded. " Yeah.. And if we dont kill them the master will take one of us and kill us to.. Already two of us are dead..
Sarah started crying but if zaku would of heard it it would of sounded more like a laugh force into a crying wail.
Norzak eyed her still a little confused. " Im gonna go get a drink... He turned then back again. " Isnt it a little unsafe to be in the fire?
