gray plumes, as the Wedgies infiltrated them.
Fully erupting from the snowy surface like jack-in-the-
boxes came a multitude of white, diminutive figures. Their
appearance in the middle of the Theiwar company had
thrown the unit into disarray, but swords rose and fell, and
crimson stains appeared on the distant snow.

run down the slope toward the distant road. "Come on, gul-
