Once mounted, they left the city as quietly as they could, the small postern gate easily opened and shut behind them. Two days they rode along dusty t...ails before taking a small ferry across narrow straits leading to a gentler land. They skirted around villages, taking vague trails to avoid being seen. They watered the horses in irrigation ditches where they could, stopping only for brief snatches of sleep. Every bone in Sophia’s body ached. Many times she fell asleep in her saddle, swaying. “I am looking for the shoot,” stated a tall woman dressed in loud floral print dress with purple hair.“Down the hall on the left,” I said, trying to sound confident.Behind her came four dogs, all large dogs I might add, on leashes. She walked down the hall and entered the room with the green door. My curiosity began to get the best of me, what in the world were dogs doing in this shoot, with naked girls. I stood up, and walked to the entrance to the hallway, I stood there for a bit wondering. “These assholes are from Gort’s village,” Clara shouted back at me. “The one I shot tried to take Unna. From all their jabbering and what Unna said, he’s the one Hagar had offered her to, just before Gort spirited her away.”Well, that news went over like a lead balloon. My temper started to boil and I felt an urgent need to hurt somebody. Fortunately, by the time I got across the ford and to where Clara was standing, I’d gotten a handle on it. I flashed a reassuring smile to Unna and Gabby as I. You scroll by moving your tongue along the back of your teeth, in the desired direction. Scroll now to the end of the list, to ‘wide band’ call.”I moved my tongue against the plastic, resting against the back of my upper teeth. My jaw, and tongue, were beginning to get tired; but I knew from experience, that I could handle more. Reaching the end of the list, the ‘Wide Band Call’ item was highlighted.“This is for emergencies only. Using this call, results in your voice being sent as a wide band.
