Chapter IV
Knowing I had nothing more to lose, I said, "With a renegade called Rakhal Sensar." Only the old man echoed my words dully, "Rakhal Sensar?" I felt heartened, seeing I wasn't dead yet. "I have sworn to kill him." Kyral suddenly clapped his hands and shouted to the white _chak_ to clean up the broken glass on the floor.
