There was someone standing outside 23 moving in his direction. As he came to the bridge he saw it was Cragmore. 24 "Greetings, Cragmore. How goes the world?" They chatted on incon- 25 sequential items as they entered the Inn. 26 After ordering drinks, they sat at a table with Milchar and his 27 apprentice. Finally, the moment came... 28 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 29 The Inn Keeper's Song (words & music: Peter S. Beagle) 30 There came three ladies at sundown 31 One was as brown as bread is brown 32 One was black, with a sailor's sway 33 And one was pale as the moon by day 34 35 The white one wore an emerald ring 36 The brown led a fox on a silver string 37 And the black one carried a rosewood cane 38 With a sword inside, for I saw it plain 39 40 They took my own room, they barred the door 41 They sang songs I never had heard before 42 My cheese and mutton they did destroy 43 And they called for wine....and the stable boy 44 45 And once they quarrelled, and twice they cried 46 Their laughter blazed thru the countryside 47 The ceiling shook and the plaster flew 48 And the fox ate my pigeons...all but two 49 50 They rode away with the morning sun 51 The brown like a queen, the white like a nun 52 And the black one singing with scarlet joy 53 And I'll have to get a new stable boy.... 54 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 55 As the laughter died away, Bard inquired, "Well, what is happening 56 these days?" 57 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~BARD~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 58 WHO CARES? 59 60 =------------------------------= 61 Dryden - time is at hand 62 call via land line asap 63 Westmoreland 64 =------------------------------= 65 o\=<([v2v])>=/o 66 ***************************** LOOKING ** 67 FOR PART TIME COMPUTER RELATED WORK, I 68 AM TRYING TO GO TO LAW SCHOOL NEXT 69 FALL.

Cragmore said, a smile on his 86 face wider than he had been able to muster in a long time. "Times have been 87 rough at the Inn. Our cozy Inn has been the target of a multitude of dark 88 characters, the kind we have not seen in many years. The kept coming and we 89 kept getting rid of them. There doesn't seem to be an end to their supply. 90 Many of the old timers that used to frequent this place have sworn it off. They 91 just can't stand the attitude some visitors seem to harbor towards other 92 inngoers, and the Innkeep himself. I'm sorry to say we're about the only 93 ones left, Bard." 94 Milchar nodded his head slowly. "But you never know when they might 95 return. A little house cleaning here and there, a dab of paint and a good 96 song or two might just bring some of them back." Milchar paused, then added, 97 "And there is the door." 98 "What door" Bard inquired. 99 "Over there" Cragmore pointed towards the shadows near the bar. Bard 100 peered into the gloom, and when his eyes adjusted, saw what the others were 101 speaking of. 102 A large metal door at least ten feet high and 6 feet wide stood next 103 to the Inn's bar. It appeared to be solidly constructed, and firmly implanted 104 into the wall. The door's metal exterior glowed very slightly from the fire 105 light in the hearth. 106 "What in tarnation? Where did it come from? I don't remember a room 107 there? Who built it?" 108 "Questions, questions, Bard!" Cragmore said, shaking his head. "We 109 don't know much more than you. It appeared one day. The Innkeeper disclaims 110 all knowledge of it. He says one morning he walked in and there it was. It 111 has no door handle, as you can see, and neither Milchar or I have been able 112 to penetrate it with our special skills. Needless to say, it seems impervious 113 to any forceful entry. And then there's the sound." 114 "Don't tell me you hear sounds from behind the door!" Bard started to 115 laugh. 116 "I'm afraid it's true." Milchar returned. "Go ahead and listen for 117 yourself and tell us what you think." 118 "I'll do just that." Bard pushed back his chair and walked up to the 119 door. Carefully he turned his head and placed his right ear next to the metal 120 door. 121 Cragmore and Milchar could tell by the expression on Bard's face as he 122 returned to the table that he indeed had heard something. 123 Cragmore smiled and said, "So Bard, what did those fine musician's 124 ears hear behind that mysterious door?" 125 Bard paused for a second before answering, as if carefully forming his 126 words prior to responding. "It...sounded...like...construction. That's it! 127 construction. I heard sounds like sawing and pounding of wood. And metal 128 bars clanging together. There wasn't a great deal of activity going on back 129 there, but I do know the sounds of something being built." Bard seemed to 130 smile the smile one gives when he solves someone elses mystery. 131 "That's amazing Bard. You certainly do have good hearing, but your 132 hypothesis does not explain who or the how." Cragmore was not about to let 133 his friend rest on any laurels for too long. 134 "Well, er, I haven't figured out everything yet, but give me time. I 135 might have something in my pack that will shed some more light on the Inn's 136 latest oddity." 137 Cragmore and Milchar looked at each other and shrugged. 138 PsIpSiPsIpSiPsIpSiPsIpSiPsIpSiPsIpSiPsIpSiPsIpSi CRAGMORE PsIpSiPsIpSiPsIpSiPsI 139 140 141 RAGUE PRAGUE PRAGUE PRAGUE PRAGUE PRAGUE PRAGUE PRAGUE PRAGUE PRAGUE 142 143 Prague 144 March 23 145 146 "Stand back, we are the police," 147 Lipton was restrained by the powerful arms of two soldiers. His every tug 148 against them shook the rifles strapped to their shoulders. His flat was 149 ransacked. Searched from carpet to light bulb. Then the police force left him 150 on his floor. In a crumple. He cried from trauma as he dialed out on the 151 telephone. 152 153 "I am listening," 154 It was a darkly Slavic voice, and an ominous Slavic phrase of regards. Dimitri 155 was a friend though. Large and with a deep voice. The sort of voice that 156 warmed you to him, even if he was scolding you as a student in class. 157 158 As head master and a professor at the University, he met Lipton during the 159 previous Winter. At a local seminar on tree fungi and the insects that ate at 160 them. Since then, they had been close companions. Even presenting gifts of 161 books from their opposing nations. 162 163 "Dimitri, the police were here. They tore the place apart. They stole several 164 of my sketches. A months work and several of the subjects are migrating away 165 even now." 166 167 Lipton was nearly screaming. His head was in a spin. His fever was rising and 168 his pressing cold could only have been worsened. After a short pause, he asked 169 a simple question. 170 "What should I do?" 171 172 "Listen, friend. We can get the sketches back for you. The Minister of 173 Learning and I often get materials confiscated at the border from tourists or 174 students. We can get your work back. As for the police, why are they after 175 you, are you a spy?" 176 Laughter erupted from the earpiece. 177 178 "No, Dimitri. If they think that, wont they put me in prison?" 179 "Don't worry. I know you are not a spy, and I can pull strings. As you say. 180 Now come over here and have a dinner with me. We can talk about the sketches 181 and how I can identify them," 182 183 "Thank you, I'll be over soon. I have some cleaning to do.

In the dream there were monsters. 250 Monsterds 251 of all different shapes and sizes and powers. Some had horns, some had 252 claws, some had hair while others did not, but they all had two things in common 253 : their love of killing and bloodshed and their love of the taste of blood. 254 They ran around with huge goblets filled with blood, to them it was like a 255 heady wine... 256 257 Tobias screamed himself awake, sweat soaked and shaking. His mother and 258 father rushed in. 259 " are you ok" his mother asked with concern. 260 " ye..yeah, go back to bed mom.I'm fine." 261 He sat there pondering his dream. Slow realization hit him. Maybe he 262 was crazy. It was only a dream. The creatures told him he wasn't human. 263 His tight lip of concern gradually turned into a smirk of evil.. 264 265 The dream came every night since then. The demons tell him of powers that 266 he possesses that grow stronger as he grows older. They tell him of his destiny 267 and his purpose. Tobias no longer screams at nighttime, he welcomes it with 268 pleasure............ 269 270 zach 271 aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa 272 Llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll 273 Is this entering? 274 Hummm.... 275 It doesn't feel like it.

I *know* it's in here *somewhere*..." Bard 350 could be heard mumbling to himself as he rummaged through his pack. While 351 the others at the table were ignoring him while searched, a few people at 352 other tables were staring. 353 His pack was only about 18 inches deep...so how could he be in it 354 halfway to his waist? Old-timers were used to this sort of thing, but there 355 were always a few newcomers. 356 "AHA! Got it!" exclaimed Bard. He set a strange box on the table 357 without withdrawing his head from the pack. He rumaged for another minute 358 or so, placing some odd looking objects with wires attached next to it. 359 The box was about an inch & a half tall, a foot wide, and 8 inches 360 deep. the bottom half was black while the top was a sort of off-white. 361 a third of the top was taken up by a grayish-black panel, while most of the 362 rest was covered with numerous 1/2 inch square blocks and a few rectangular 363 ones. They had some sort or runes on top. 364 He withdrew his head from the pack and proceeded to attach the 365 wires from the objects to the box. He then started pressing the blocks in 366 some sort of pattern. Apparently they were movable with a limited amount of 367 vertical travel. 368 He pointed various of the objects at the metal panel in the wall. 369 While doing so he stared intenly at the gray panel on the box. What he saw 370 appeared to puzzle him. He pressed the blocks again while muttering to 371 himself. 372 "Multi-spectral.... neutrino flux.....graviic anomaly....magnetic 373 flux..." Most of the words meant nothing to the others. Finally he just 374 sat and stared at the box.... 375 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~BARD~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 376 .-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-. 377 Milchar - call me tonight (Wed) or tomorrow at work (L'homme's work #) for 378 the opportunity of a lifetime... asap 379 Oh, if you need my number, information's got it... 380 .-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.Emu 381 WHO CARES? 382 \HCDE YPNZI XX_WI WTHLH DBSOR \_L^L YVJVI DML^K HQXJX EIZA[ IEZP\ OQ\TD YB_WR 383 KUGXS OXOY^ WJZHF VYBF\ SNDI_ G^_OA ZWJIL WXUSI GPNNW GTWUZ ZGC_P BKCSI FE^_K 384 LKL_N YXVAE USX[H MLSHQ BH\PZ ^HPXW Q_W_O JGIJM L_UO_ FVQKP DMFXP YFFBW GDNHH 385 SBUHT FC\_R AHVEA \NEOL CZXDO EB\TE ALQAJ CSEAZ LVC_R PYLQS QYIN_ AYTLW H^TLG 386 NHZTP HJAUX YSPFK S[OOB MDTXE YECSD LP^ON FCN\E MFXHQ TVNSV ^XOBH LNQSC GGLFY 387 EPZKS ISYPI GVNXT _DYEP DLSBQ TIERB RJFFO VCMBM GU[NC PCHJQ EYEDI TPZP[ T^^C_ 388 _SDPV LPLHT BTWZM DDV\N ELBMK \GGRV UXQSM MS\FF BQOY^ YVGCV BLXW^ XKVGL ^OPVZ 389 GLB[O UDJQQ FOZ_H KWFVD IGEMI LTVO\ JDPZN PR_^V LEBDT CIEQJ U^WCX ZC[YX QVNEK 390 DFOZF POI\C AVHBH NBNMH HGDIR WFUQV NY^WX SPRXQ K_URT MDEOC _\XSC NKMRB EF^BV 391 01010101010101010101010101010101010101FORGOT HEADER01010101010101010101010101 392 o\=<([v2v])>=/o 393 zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzippy 394 (yup, him again) 395 KHW, Although the name is unfamiliar, 'tis good to see you again as well. 396 One simple question though: What the devil are you talking about? 397 398 Wax, I know who you are, indeed, 'tis always a pleasure to encounter an old 399 friend by way of Backwater, though it is rather an improper place for 400 lengthy conversations...

Why did you search the flat of a foreign scientist named Lipton?" 465 466 The Chairman was fuming with anger. Dimitri had incited this anger at a dinner 467 he was invited to. Describing with elegant detail the persecution of a foreign 468 scientist. I understand his fiction of the broken glasses on the Persian rug 469 was enough that the Chairman struck the dining table in anger. 470 471 "Sir, he spies on the manoeuvres!
