тАШNo, young man,тАЩ I told him. тАШIt was my little boy, Ashad, this time, and there were
some very peculiar things involved. WeтАЩre hoping that Veltan might be able to
explain them for us.тАЩ I paused for a moment. тАШNow that I think about it, though, you
can probably explain them even better than Veltan. Why donтАЩt you come along?тАЩ

тАШOf course. Your brotherтАЩs back in Commander NarasanтАЩs cabin at the stern.тАЩ

тАШIs Narasan with him?тАЩ Zelana asked.

тАШNo, Lady Zelana. The commanderтАЩs over on the Seagull conferring with Captain
Sorgan.тАЩ

тАШGood,тАЩ I said. тАШIтАЩm not sure that NarasanтАЩs going to be very happy about some of
the peculiarities that showed up in AshadтАЩs dream. Is your commander particularly
religious?тАЩ

тАШNot noticeably,тАЩ Keselo replied. тАШIs that likely to be very significant?тАЩ

тАШWeтАЩll get to that in just a few minutes. LetтАЩs go talk with Veltan.тАЩ

тАШAll right,тАЩ the young man replied, turning and leading us back toward the ornate,
almost house-like structure at the aft end of the ship. He rapped politely on the door.

тАШCome in,тАЩ VeltanтАЩs voice came from inside.

Keselo opened the door and stood aside to let us go on in ahead of him.

The cabin was much more ornate than IтАЩd really expected. In some ways it
resembled a room in a house rather than part of a ship. The ceiling wasnтАЩt very high,
and, since the sailors used the cabinтАЩs roof as a deck, there were substantial beams to
keep the ceiling from tumbling down on those who slept there. There was also a large
window across the back of the cabin to give the people inside the cabin something to
look at. All in all, I thought the whole thing was just a bit silly, but I decided not to
make an issue of that.

Veltan was seated at a large table examining a map. тАШIs something amiss?тАЩ

тАШNot really,тАЩ I told him. тАШAt least not yet. My little boy Ashad had one of those
dreams last night, and we were right about one thing, at least. The servants of the
Vlagh will be coming your way soon.тАЩ

тАШDid he tell you exactly when?тАЩ

тАШ тАЬWhenтАЭ never comes up in these dreams, Veltan,тАЩ I told him. тАШYou should know
that by now. Now we come to the complicated part. Ashad told me that there was a
second invasion in his dream, and those particular invaders had absolutely no
connection with the servants of the Vlagh.тАЩ

тАШWho were they, then?тАЩ
