Large, red drops of blood flowed down the mail corselet of Harsha,
house guard to the Lord of Cuddapah province. Dropped silently to the ground, the body of
Harsha exhaled its last breath and began to once again spill its lifeblood upon the marble steps
of the garden entryway. The music of wind chimes and the smell of incense wafted through the
air, giving the garden a semblance of serenity; and a feel of horror. The many candles set about
the Lord of Cuddapah s mansion swayed with the shifting of the wind, that wove its path through
the many trees set about the estate. The shadowy slayer of Harsha moved quickly, but silently through
the gardens entry hall. The assassin s blade dripped bright red blood and left a trail as he glided up the
staircase that would lead him to the living quarters of Lord Gopali and his doomed family.
As the assassin passed an open window adorned with vines and sweet flowers, the half-moon shed light
upon the breast of the intruder. A small, black amulet hung about the chest of the intruder; an amulet
identifying the assassin as a faithful of Katar. Hertus of Katar crept slowly up to the first marble landing and
listened intently for sounds. His animal-like senses took in his surroundings; letting him know that all was as it
should be. Suddenly he became aware of a flickering of candlelight, moving its way down the corridor toward the
landing where he stood. His dark clothed body merged with the planters and statues that lined the marble landing,
becoming more shadow than man.
A turbaned servant was walking toward Hertus place of concealment; in his hands he carried a candle and bag
of incense. With lightning speed and deathly silence, Hertus struck out at the servant as he passed. Like a deadly
cobra, his dagger plunged into the servant s back, over and over again. No sound came from the servant s mouth,
for Hertus had smothered it with a piece of his own dark outfit. Laying the dead body of the servant among the
planters, Hertus made his way stealthily down the hallway toward the estates living quarters, his head swaying from
side to side, similar to the deadly cobra that he emulated.
At the end of the corridor the passage way went left and right. The shadowy figure slowly turned to the right,
noticing a large double door a mere 30 steps down another corridor. The left hand corridor gradually faded into
darkness. Seeing the noble sigil of Lord Gopali upon the double wooden door, Hertus began to slowly move down
the corridor, listening for any sounds. When he came to the double door, he put his head against the wood, straining
to hear any sounds or movement. When none were heard, Hertus thought to himself how strange the Lord Gopali
had not set guard at his bedroom door? However, it did not really matter to Hertus; he had come to kill the Lord
and his family, for insulting the honour of another Lord s daughter. It did not matter whether Lord Gopali had
been in the right or wrong or that the insulted Lord was a follower of Katar, Hertus had been paid and Katar
demanded her due.
Slowly, Hertus pushed upon the doors. They opened silently, as if they had been well oiled. The room was very dark
and silent as the grave; no candles were lit to reveal the room s occupants. Suddenly a fierce breeze blew through the
windows, blowing aside the curtains and letting the half-moons light shine into the room. Immediately it became
apparent that this was not the room of the Lord Gopali. The room was littered with boxes, bundles and sacks of
grain. Hertus had been deceived; if this was not the Lord s room, then where in the estate was it? The midnight
wind blew at the curtains again, bringing with it the sound of chimes in the distant. No, thought Hertus, not
chimes but bells! He quickly turned around and fled through the double doors out into the corridor. He had
barely travelled halfway down the hallway when a large door burst open somewhere along the previously darkened
corridor, spilling out a flood of light as well as large group of armed house guards. The room behind him was a
dead end; those little windows would not allow him passage. His only possible exit was blocked by Lord Gopali s
house guard. There seemed to be no escape. Drawing a viciously curved scimitar, Hertus gave out a cry of rage and
contempt, May the midnight blade cut my way to salvation!
Knowing that today might be his last day among the world or mortal men, he then charged down the corridor into
the wall of gleaming scimitars and warspears&
