"Well, I'm off," Gilder says with a hint of relief that Yarnus the wizard doesn't detect.
"Oh, okay," Yarnus says, "It was good seeing you. Where are you going next?"
"I'm going to search for the Sword of Life," Gilder takes a step toward the door to give Yarnus the hint.
"Very interesting artifact," Yarnus mindlessly yarns, "Enchanted by the sorcerer Malki to heal rather than kill. Interesting fact: Malki also enchanted an exact duplicate sword with the opposite power. Not so much an enchantment, though. He just sharpened it really well."
Gilder sighs, "Next we meet will be too soon."
Brief Conceits will be moving off of Blogger onto a WordPress-powered site. The transition will happen later this week. The web address will remain the same, and if you are subscribed to the RSS that should remain the same as well. Thank you!
