357 Night and Day

<A pit.> one of the boars sent.

<A pit full of spikes.> the largest sent.

<Well, I know what to do with that.> the sow sent, backing up to the pit. And all three boars did likewise, emptying their night soils into it.

<I told you that wouldn't work.> the Hound said across our party channel.

<Yes, and I told you believed you.> I sent back. <We're building up their confidence. We want Madonna and her mastery of Fire before striking at them.>

<You mean her mastery of fire?> Corvina asked.

<Nah, > Kismet said, <Rhishi has it right. Donna both fire and Fire, but it's the second that will get us some boar meat.>

<Don't discount Gamilla's spear.> I said.

<Yes, you should discount Gamilla's spear.> Gamilla said. <With your Taunt, I'll take out one boar; I'm not risking it with three.>

<Once my powder dries out, I can take out one and not even get close to it.> the Hound said.

But then, the boars turned their noses up.
