If he and I had gone at it blade to shield, I would be dead now-even if I'd killed him, the guards and the dogs would have torn me to shreds-and Depa, too, if she'd tried to save me; we'd only barely survived being attacked by three akks in the Circus Horrificus.Against a dozen- Well. "Exceedingly dangerous. "These are my terms," Mace said evenly. "We need you. As is he. The two shooters slowly uncovered: one from behind a trash bin and the other stepping out from a recessed doorway. The younger children-Urno and Nykl and the brave little girl Pell-have nothing worse than a few bruises, and scraped hands and knees from scrambling up the landslide.I have not bothered to maintain my pretense of belonging to the guerrillas, though I have also avoided explaining who I really am.
