Shasta's craggy face seemed to be lined much more liberally than usual as he looked up on the bloodstains and body parts that were all that remained of Nogrod and Eomer.

The cards are never wrong," he began to speak louder, "but just this once.... I wish they had been."

Shasta bowed his head, more frail today than usual, and turned away from the sight.

"I need to sit..."
