Camber The Heretic
THE THEFT OF MAGIC
Camber drew back and watched Dom Queron blink and tense for just an instant in sheer, naked panic, then twist
around and stare at Rhys in undisguised horror. Emrys looked equally stunned, the only time Camber had ever seen
the abbot's composure shaken.

"Sweet Jesu, what have you done to me?" Queron cried, beginning to tremble as he realized just what Rhys had
done.
He clapped both hands to his temples and shook his head several times, unable to assimilate what he was
missing. Then he subsided weakly, as if he had no physical strength to cope with his helplessness. Instinctively,
Emrys gathered him into the circle of his arms, staring at Rhys in shocked disbelief.

"You took away his Deryni powers!" Emrys whispered, his tone both accusatory and awed. "One of the most
powerful Healers I have ever trained, and you made himтАФhuman! Blind!"
