Chapter 7 - Dusanne Vendette
This chapter is brought to you by the fine folks at MSAF, the makers of
Myth-Alloy. Dusanne Vendette is the name of a mechanical
construct, which was fabricated out of Myth-Alloy many-many, many long
years ago. And of course, this magical warhorse has absolutely
nothing to do with the rest of the story, so I’m guessing that’s why we
named the chapter after him, while Bones, who is a similarly
constructed skeletal robot who just so happens to play a more or less
central role in the rest of the story (being the chief nemesis and
all), is simply ignored and looked over. Oh, and if you’re
looking for Bones motivation in the pages to come and why he turned
evil, one need look no further than that whole shunted to the side and
overlooked thing. He really hates that. Eats him up
inside. But enough about Bones, standard skeletal warlord,
yada-yada, and all that. Not only is Dusanne Vendette the ideal
battle stead, he breathes fire, as well. Cool, huh?
Chapter 8 - Duk’ah
Duk’ah means quite literally, ‘stuff happens’. Don’t really feel
like writing a TOC entry for this chapter, so deal with it. (That
being an example of Duk’ah, though maybe not a very good one.)
Chapter 9 - Time Drifts By
In which the characters read books. It’s sort of cerebral, that
-- when you stop to think about it -- characters in books, reading
about characters in books, who are reading about characters in books,
and so on and so on and so on until your mind just sort of goes
‘Duk’ah’ and you have achieved blessed enlightenment -- otherwise known
as that empty state of bliss when your mind goes totally blank and you
become one with the all that is nothing: this then being a sort of
serendipitous juxtaposition to the great big heaping pile of Duk’ah
that was the last chapter.
