There’s no way out this time, is there?’ said Maelys, wiping the teeming
rain from her eyes.
Nish glanced at her and managed a smile, for she was even grubbier than
he was; her small figure was clotted with mud from head to foot. ‘I can’t
think of one.’ He rubbed his nose and winced. His battered face was so
swollen that he was almost unrecognisable.
It was mid-morning on the Range of Ruin, and everyone had gathered in
a ring around him, hoping for a miracle, but it wasn’t going to happen. The
enemy held the surrounding ridges, trapping them in a clearing in the
forested valley; they had been ordered to take Nish and Maelys alive, and
put everyone else to death. All their struggles over the past weeks, and all
Nish’s agony, had been for nothing.
He and his Gendrigorean militia had driven themselves to the limit of
human endurance to climb the rain-drenched range and reach Blisterbone
Pass before his father’s army, and they would have succeeded had their
treacherous guide, Curr, not led them astray. The pass was only a league
away in a direct line, yet it was as unreachable as the moon, for the enemy’s
advance guard had beaten them to it and the rest of that monstrous army
could not be far behind.
For supporting Nish and daring to oppose his corrupt father – the GodEmperor Jal-Nish Hlar – the peaceful little nation of Gendrigore was going
to be obliterated and its men, women and children taken into slavery. Nish
felt responsible, for the Gendrigoreans had not wanted to go to war; he had
talked them into coming and now he bitterly regretted it.
Their situation was hopeless, yet he could not give in. During the lyrinx
war they had snatched victory from defeat many times, and surely there had
to be a way to do it again. But they could not win by force of arms, which
left only the Secret Art.
‘Flydd?’ Nish said quietly. ‘We really need your help.’
‘What if you made another portal with the mimemule?’ said Maelys, for
Flydd had used that little mimicking device to create the portal that had
brought her, Flydd and Yggur here.
