  Chapter 34

  “It’s all right, Master Tathan. You are safe now.” Sir Danth’s voice was everywhere, rattling through Tathan’s head.

  “Sword . . . need . . .” Tathan couldn’t be without the sword. It was a part of him and he needed it to fight off the danger. He tried to open his eyes, but they were crusty and stuck together.
