I should like to select her myself, if I may.
Imagine if you can, the suffering of his poorvictims. I think that will not be
difficult, she said. Not until thendid I move, but now I arose and went to the
door.
I had gone but a short distance from the house of
Fal Sivas when I metRapas the Ulsio.
I am a slave, a prisoner,What made you
scream?
If you prefer to kill my enemies with a sword, use
a sword. But what are these wonderful inventions that Fal Sivas works
upon?
He always selectsthe more attractive of the girls
that are summoned.
Imagine if you can, the suffering of his
poorvictims. If I am to go, I do not want Rapas to know anything about it, I
said.
The guild is not necessary, he whispered; we do not
all belong tothe guild. I recently read his Theoretical Mechanics.
He backed away, a sickly grin upon
hisface.
That is a matter that Fal Sivas will have to decide
for himself,replied the slave.
That hangar there is vacant, he said,pointing. He
gave me very accurate directions to a building in another quarter ofthe
city.
The slaves that disappear do not leave through
either of the twodoorways. I have one very rich client;he has lots of work, and he
pays well. Phystals brows contracted, and he hesitated. Rapas was sober now, nor did
he take but a single drink with his meal. I like you, Vandor, he said; you are a
goodfellow.
I did not dare to turn and look for myself for fear
of arousing hissuspicions further.
I did not scream, she replied; that was another.
There were books onmedicine, on surgery, chemistry, mechanics, and
electricity.
I really know little of either subject, I told him.
The public house to which chance had led me catered only to men. A few he buys, but
most of them are kidnaped for him. A few he buys, but most of them are kidnaped for
him.
He would have spitted me straight through the
heart.
You must notdisturb him no matter what you may
hear.
I am a slave, a prisoner,What made you scream?
Perhaps the girl was near discovery; but, if so, Fal Sivas was alsonear death that
moment.
I shall lose no sleep over it, I replied, and
anyway it was not myfault.
