This novella represents one possible response to the Mystery that is Argrath.
It exists because of the friendship, criticism and encouragement of members of
the Gloranthan community across the globe, who have patiently answered my
odd questions, nurtured my Vingans and endured my Humakti. In particular I
wish to thank Philippa Hughes, Stephen Martin, Michael ÓMOBÔ OÔBrien, David
Hall, Loren Miller, Nick Brooke, Jane Williams, Fabian Kuchler and my fellow
contributors to the Internet Gloranthan Digest .
This story is dedicated to those Heroes of the King , and to Greg Stafford,
who taught me to trust my visions.

John Hughes lives with his wife Philippa and an over-excitable cat in the
verdant wilderness of Canberra, AustraliaÔs bush capital. He is co-author of
Issaries Thunder Rebels and a contributor to Storm Tribe , and his work
regularly appears in a variety of Gloranthan magazines, including Tales of
the Reaching Moon . JohnÔs interests include comparative religion, the
sneaky bits in world mythology, ancient poetry, and picking wings off
Amazonian butterflies as a practical measure in hurricane prevention. He
has many books but no tattoos, and thinks that The HitchhikerÔs Guide To
The Galaxy is the greatest heroquest of the twentieth century.

A tale of death and laughter
from the Hero Wars
Bound I to Humakt
Serve in awe
yet practise double labour.
With skaldic verse, and tales of war
I also serve Donandar.
after Archilochos of Paros
c. 660 BCE.
The heroes filled their drinking cups with wine
Sainted with water, which is best, and sipped;
And what in them was noble, grew;
And truthfulness, with many meanings, spread
Over the slopes and through the leafy spears
As Priam thrust the knife into the white lambÔs throat.
