The first man carried a rusty spear, while the second had a fearsome-looking wooden flail slung over his shoulder.

“What’s all this, then?” said the first Hound, his voice carrying the nasal self-satisfaction of a small-minded man in a position of power. “You folks giving Mr Pilserier trouble?”

“Yes!” he said, emphatically. “This man is threatening me! Trying to drag me out of my own home! Do something!”

The crowd was still watching intently, their trivial tasks of the moment forgotten in the name of a good bit of street drama. Sizing up his options, the Hound who had spoken turned his eyes to Seth.
