He was being hunted. Somehow he had become their prey, like the rilda that grazed on this plain. Except slower. So much slower.<\/p>\n

Stam Corfej had been peddling his wares among the Fal\u2019Borna for the better part of eight fours; more than half a lifetime. He knew as well as anyone how hard the white-haired sorcerers of the Central Plain could be. He\u2019d bargained with them, been threatened by them, been called a cheat and a dark-eye bastard and worse. More than once he\u2019d considered giving up on the Qirsi and returning to his native Aelea. A peddler could do well in the Mountain Nation, perhaps not inland, but along her rocky shores, in Redcliff or Yorl.<\/p>\n

But it had never taken him long to dismiss the idea of returning to the sovereignty. Whatever gold he might make in Eandi territory he could double and then some trading among the Fal\u2019Borna. He knew the tastes of the golden-skinned clan. He knew their ways, and he knew how to best them in a negotiation.<\/p>\n

And while he didn\u2019t particularly like the white-hairs, he had never felt threatened by them. At least not until now.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
