The low roar of the crowd grew louder in the cramped arena.  Spectators crowded into the aisles and walkways making passage impossible.  In the lower areas closer to the stage, the privileged class enjoyed more spacious accommodations.  Between them and the rabble was a thick layer of armed guards. They moved through the crowd with menacing scowls, shoving and kicking back the crowd as if they were dogs.  The guards were somewhat ceremonious since the force field was the primary barrier between the nobles and the proletariat.  But history had taught them a bloody lesson, since then the guards served as a back-up defense.  In a place such as this, it was imperative that order be maintained.  Some of the most prominent citizens of Nethic would be in attendance, including Nethic

CHAPTER 4

Vaush regained consciousness with a throbbing headache. Slowly, sounds of her surroundings began filtering through her awareness.   Outdoor scents were breathed in and analyzed.  Sounds and scents of a rain forest registered on her brain.  Where am I? she thought as she willed her eyes open?  They fluttered as they adjusted to the sunlight.

Laying upon the soft ground, she visually took in the surroundings.  A green canopy of trees blocked a portion of the sun, which explained the relative coolness in the tropical setting.  She wondered how in the world she ended up here. Despite the pain in her head, she forced herself to sit up.  Like a flash, the memories of the exploding transport came back to her.

When Crausin landed on Patheis with his small army of searchers, he immediately contacted the prefect and the Mobias EIC.  The prefect kindly informed him that Count Larrs Bastionli was also joining the search operation and begged that they be civil toward one another as he wanted no additional bloodshed.  The truly startling news was that Larrs
