When he spoke, his voice penetrated the trees and was carried by them and the sleeping birds picked up his words in a chorus so that they reached Cirtroug easily, “There will be no war.” He said confidently and the figure stopped dead, “You have been locked up too long. There is now a peace that neither would dare break.” Tom stared at the figure, and he was sure, even though a vast distance separated them, that they stared into each other’s eyes, “Curious.” Cirtroug deadpanned “You must be the child of Ilmgral. Eyes of a God, body of a child. Is this how far we have fallen?” He paused, “Do not fear for my knowledge. Events are in motion and war is inevitable.” |
