察a crossbow bolt transfixing his right forearm。 The wand flew from his hands。
   ;The rooftops ─the wizard called。
   Halisstra backed away from the gargoyles and squinted at the bright sky察searching for more attackers。 Tawny blurs crouched atop a high wall perhaps forty or fifty yards distant察a handful of lamias who carried heavy crossbows and watched carefully for opportunities to shoot into the fray察their beautiful faces twisted into evil grins。 Even as she watched察one took at shot at Ryld。 The bolt whistled past the weapons master's head察smashing a divot from the soft stone wall nearby。 Ryld flinched away。
   ;Someone take care of the snipers ─he snapped察while slashing at the gargoyles。
   A second later察two more bolts flew at Ryld。 One bounced from his breastplate察but the other caught him on the right side while his arms were raised to wield Splitter。 The bolt lodged in the arm´opening of his armor。 Ryld staggered back two steps and collapsed in the dust。
   Halisstra reached down and snatched up Pharaun's wand。
   ;Aid Quenthel察─she told Danifae。
   She leveled the wizard's weapon at the lamias on the high wall。 She knew something about using such devices´a talent she wouldn't normally have wished to reveal察but the fight was desperate。 She spoke an arcane word察and a bolt of purple lightning shot out at the first lamia察blasting the creature from the wall in a spray of shattered stone。 Thunder reverberated in the dusty ruin。 She aimed at the next lamia察but the monsters weren't stupid。 They abandoned their lofty perches at once察leaping back behind the wall to avoid more lightning。
   From the shadow of the back wall察Pharaun returned to the battle察armed with another wand。 This one produced a blazing bolt of fire察which he directed against the gargoyles overhead。 With shrieks of pain察the monsters flapped off察though the one poisoned by Quenthel's whips didn't get far before its wings folded。 It plummeted down among the rooftops some distance away。
   Valas dispatched the last of his attackers with a double´handed slash that nearly cut the creature in two察and Jeggred stood amid a virtual heap of asabi bodies察his flanks heaving。 The wizard glanced around once察and noticed Ryld on the ground。
   ;Damn察─he muttered。
   He knelt by the weapons master and turned him over。 Ryld was dying。 Blood streamed from the bolt in his chest察and he fought for each breath察bloody spittle streaking his gray lips。 The wizard scowled察then looked up at Quenthel。
   ;Do something察─he said。 ;We need him。;
   Quenthel folded her arms with a cold frown and said察 Unfortunately察Lolth does not choose to grant me spells of healing at the moment察and I have already expended almost all of the healing magic I brought on our journey。 There is little I can do for him。;
   Halisstra narrowed her eyes察thinking。 Again察she didn't like the thought of what she was about to do察but there was a benefit to revealing her secret。 If she proved herself useful察the Menzoberranyr would be hesitant to discard her。
   Besides察she thought察they likely already know。
   ;Move aside察─she said quietly。 ;I can help him。;
   Quenthel and Pharaun looked up suspiciously。
   ;How拭─Quenthel demanded。 ;Do you mean to say that Lolth has not withdrawn her favor from you拭
   ;No察─Halisstra replied。 She knelt by Ryld and examined him。 She would have to move quickly。 If he died察he would be beyond her assistance。 ;Lolth has denied me spells察just as she has Quenthel察and presumably every other priestess of our race。 I have some ability to heal by a different means察though。;
   With that察she began to sing。 Her song was a strange keening threnody察something dark and eerie that tugged at the drow admiration for beauty察ambition察and black deeds skillfully done。 Halisstra molded the shape of her voice and the ancient words of the song察summoning the magic of her lament as she set her hand on the quarrel and drew it from the wound。
   Ryld started察his eyes wide and staring察and blood spurted over Halisstra's hands´but the wound closed into a puckered scar察and the weapons master coughed himself awake。
   ;What happened拭─he groaned。
   ;What happened察indeed拭─Quenthel replied。 She eyed Halisstra suspiciously。 ;Was that what I thought it was拭
   Halisstra nodded and stood察wiping blood from her hands。
   ;It is a tradition in my House that those females who are suited for it may study the arts of the bae'qeshel察the dark minstrels。 As you can see察there is power in song察something that few of our kind care to study。 I have been trained in the minstrel's lore。;
   Ryld sat up察looking down at his breastplate and the bloody quarrel lying in the dust。 He looked up at Halisstra。
   ;You healed me拭─he asked。
   Halisstra offered her hand and pulled him to his feet。
   ;As your friend Pharaun observed察we need you too much to allow you to inconvenience us with your death。;
   Ryld met her eyes察obviously considering some reply。 Gratitude was not an emotion many drow bothered to act upon。 The weapons master perhaps wondered what Halisstra might choose to do with his。 She spared him any more serious reflections by turning her attention to Pharaun察and handing the iron wand back to him。
   ;Here察─she said。 ;You dropped this。;
   Pharaun inclined his head and replied察 I admit I was surprised to see you wield it察but I heard you sing in Ched Nasad。 Shame on me for not adding two and two。;
   ;Let me see your arm察─Halisstra said。
   She sang the song of healing again察and repaired Pharaun's injury。
   She would have examined the others and aided them if she could察but Quenthel interrupted her。
   ;No one else is dying察─the high priestess said。 ;We must move now or our enemies will surely descend on us again。 Valas察you lead the way。 Head toward the outer walls so that we may make for the open desert if we decide to flee。;
   ;Very well察Mistress Baenre察─the scout acquiesced。 ;It will be as you say。;
   
   Kaanyr Vhok察the half´demon prince known as the Sceptered One察stood on a high balcony over the old dwarven foundry and watched his armorers at work。 The great smelter had once been the heart of the fallen realm of Ammarindar。 The cavern was immense察and its roof rested upon dozens of towering pillars carved into the shapes of dragons察glowing red with angry firelight and the lurid radiance of molten metal。 The clanging of hammers and roar of kilns at work filled the air。 Dozens of hulking tanarukks察bestial fiends bred from orcs and demons察toiled on the foundry floor。 They might have lacked the skill and enchantments of the dwarves who once worked there察but Kaanyr Vhok's soldiers possessed a cunning instinct for the making of deadly weapons infused with dark lore。
   Kaanyr himself fit the infernal scene well。 Tall and powerful察he had the stature of a strong´thewed human warrior and the strength of a stone giant。 His skin was red and hot to the touch察and his flesh was hard enough to turn a blade。 He was strikingly handsome察though his eyes danced with malice and his teeth were as black as coal。 He wore a golden breastplate and carried a pair of wicked short swords made from some demonic black iron in rune´chased scabbards at his belt。 He grinned fiercely with delight as he looked out over the gathering storm of his army。
   ;I now lead nearly two thousand tanarukk warriors察─he said over his shoulder察 and I have just as many orcs察ogres察trolls察and giants at my mand。 I think the time has e to try my strength察my love。;
   Aliisza allowed herself a smile and moved closer察pressing herself to the demon prince's side。 Like Kaanyr Vhok察she too possessed demonic blood。 In her case察she was an alu´fiend察the spawn of a succubus and some mortal sorcerer。 Wings as smooth as black leather sprouted from her shoulder blades察but other than that she was dusky and seductive察voluptuous and inviting察a half´demoness whose allure few mortal men could resist。 She was also clever察capricious察and very skilled in magic察and therefore well´suited to be the consort of a demonspawned warlord such as Kaanyr。
