      Dead Forest

      *

      The road of clover stretched out across the grassy plain to the mountain ahead in the distance, and Pound still had no strategy for what he would do when he reached the mines. He had thought long and hard during the journey, but still no good plan came to mind. He was alone in a strange world, and the weight of the enslaved people that were held beneath the mountain burdened him like a noose tied around his neck.

      What are you thinking about, stranger? came a shadowy voice from behind. Startled, Pound jumped in fright and reached around to his back to retrieve the spear that he had taken from the tartan guard. Brandishing the thin lance in a defensive position, he spun around to find a diminutive jade-skinned man garbed in a clashing green suit, standing alone and staring up at him with a mischievous smile. He looked down at the sharp point of the spear, and then back up at Pound. Feisty, one, aren’t you? he remarked with a toothy grin.

      You scared me, little fellow, replied Pound, and seeing that the fellow intended no harm, he placed the spear in its holder on his back and bent down in a squatting position to look the fellow in the eyes. Pound could sense that the little man was not prone to violence, but there was something about him that set off a trouble alarm in his mind. Pound had experienced that sensation before, and it was usually fairly accurate on the planet Earth. Here in this world, Pound was more than wary of everyone that he met, and he would have to trust his feelings or else risk capture and imprisonment. Can I help you? queried Pound when he was certain that they were alone.

      Help me? Well, that’s a strange question coming from a tartan soldier such as yourself. I would think by now that you’ve no help left to give since you helped yourself to my mountain, replied the little fellow. Pound hesitated for a moment as he let this tidbit of information sink in. Now, are you going to tell me what’s on your mind, or should I be on my way?

      Excuse me, but you mean to say that the mountain in the distance once belonged to you? Pound asked.

      I did not stutter. That is exactly what I am saying, the dwarf replied grumpily. I would think that all of the tartan guards would know their own history.

      That may be true, if I were a tartan guard, Pound explained. Actually, I was cold last night, so I borrowed this outfit to keep warm.

      Do not take me for a fool, warrior. I know a tall tale when I hear one, fellow, the dwarf replied with a wink. I’ve told a few myself.

      Tall tales? That doesn’t seem likely, said Pound as he sized the little fellow up.

      Go ahead and finish telling me your story then, tall one! the dwarf said with
