The noise grew louder. It sounded like battle. There was

"Here!" I cried. "I'm here! This way!"
I couldn't believe my own senses. But yes, it was the
voice of Quinby Cull calling out to me! Then I heard Vigre
Arch. My mind was reeling when even that clever gnome,
Barsh, made his presence known.
"It's impossible!" I exclaimed. And then I turned to Davin.
"Do you hear them, or have I gone mad? Are my friends
really here to save me?"
My cellmate was about to answer, but then, instead, he

there was an audible crack. The guard screamed as the knife
clattered to the floor. He ran in terror as Quinby, Vigre, and
Barsh led a legion of their people toward my cell
