watching us, ready to attack at any moment.

"Guide, have you seen these Howler memories?" Cassie asked him.

He laughed. Guild of Traders. I am not interested in violence and killing and
slaughter. No, it is the members of the Criminal Guild and the Warmaker
Guild who buy Howler memories.>

I was getting that nervous, jumpy feeling I get when I feel like I'm
being delayed from doing something vital. I felt we were wasting our
time talking to the Iskoort.

44 "We aren't here to write a paper on the Iskoort," I said, more rudely
than I'd intended. "We're here to take down the seven Howlers so we can
go home."

Cassie looked a little hurt. But in a very calm voice she said, "It just
seemed to me that if we have to have a battle, we'd be better off if we
knew where we were and what was going on."

She was right, of course. But the edginess I felt wouldn't let me admit
it. "We need a place. A base of operations. We can't just stand out here
in the open."

Guide said.

He started off, moving in his weird backward crawling way, whining from
his chest the whole way. We went down a set of steps, something the
Iskoort did literally backward, but with surprising agility and speed.

We came out on a new level, mostly dark blue, and utterly different from
the previous level. Here we saw none of the igloos, only a vast field of
small cylinders, maybe two feet tall.

Guide explained, and led us down another stairway,
this one much longer. We stuck rigidly to the center of the stairs -
from the top it was perhaps a half-mile drop to the mustard-colored
floor below. Only Tobias was

45 comfortable, flying around and beneath the stairway.

I suppose Erek felt safe enough, too. It was hard to imagine the android
ever missing a step. This level, this mustard-yellow level, was teeming
with Iskoort, moving slowly along narrow avenues between open-front
buildings.

It was easy to recognize what this level was.

"It's the mall," Rachel said. "A bazaar."
