"I didn't say the orb was in here," Tasslehoff said de-
fensively, "I only said it MIGHT be. Whoever owns this
library must certainly read a lot, though how he finds the
time ... Of course, what else has he to do in the middle of all
this boring ice and snow-no offense, Raggart."
I smiled to let him know none was taken. Frankly, I
found the landscape a bit dull at times, too. But my smile
slipped as I read the spines of several books- spellbooks, I
noted with growing apprehension.
"I've not felt such all-consuming evil since . . . since Pax
Tharkas." Elistan shuddered, though I didn't understand the
reference. "I think we're near the orb, but I do not believe it
is in this room."
Abruptly, Laurana stopped pulling books from shelves.
Looking resolute, she said grimly, "Then we'll just have to
search every room in this frozen castle until we find it."
"I knew better than to trust a kender," Derek scoffed,
striding toward the door.
"You're the one who insisted back in Tarsis that I come
along," Tasslehoff pointed out, his little chin thrust forward.
"A demand I've come to regret more than once," Derek
muttered.
"Then I don't suppose you want to know about the room
hidden behind this wall?" the kender asked coyly.
Derek's face turned dark.
Laurana stepped up between them. "What room, Tas?"
she asked in that sweet voice of hers.
Tasslehoff shot a triumphant glance at Derek before turning
an excited grin on Laurana
