There
was
a
deep
,
boozy
smell
about
the
men
that
suggested
that
they
had
been
allowed
to
anaesthetize
themselves
on
their
way
to
the
gallows
,
while
the
animals
would
simply
have
been
lynched
,
hauled
up
alive
and
terrified
.
The
faces
of
the
men
looked
so
young
:
none
of
them
was
older
than
twenty
.
"
Who
am
I
?
"
asked
Shadow
.
"
You
are
a
diversion
,
"
said
the
man
.
"
You
were
an
opportunity
.
You
gave
the
whole
affair
an
air
of
credibility
I
would
have
been
hard
put
to
deliver
solo
.
Although
both
of
us
are
committed
enough
to
the
affair
to
die
for
it
.
Eh
?
"
"
Who
are
you
?
"
asked
Shadow
.
"
The
hardest
part
is
simply
surviving
,
"
said
the
man
.
The
bonfire
—
and
Shadow
realized
with
a
strange
horror
that
it
truly
was
a
bone
-
fire
:
ribcages
and
fire
-
eyed
skulls
stared
and
stuck
and
jutted
from
the
flames
,
sputtering
trace
-
element
colors
into
the
night
,
greens
and
yellows
and
blues
—
was
flaring
and
crackling
and
burning
hotly
.
"
Three
days
on
the
tree
,
three
days
in
the
underworld
,
three
days
to
find
my
way
back
.
"
The
flames
sputtered
and
flared
too
brightly
for
Shadow
to
look
at
directly
.
He
looked
down
into
the
darkness
beneath
the
trees
.
There
was
no
fire
,
no
snow
.
There
were
no
trees
,
no
hanged
bodies
,
no
bloody
spear
.
A
knock
on
the
door
—
and
now
there
was
moonlight
coming
in
the
window
.
Shadow
sat
up
with
a
start
.
"
Dinner
’
s
served
,
"
said
Media
’
s
voice
.
Shadow
put
his
shoes
back
on
,
walked
over
to
the
door
,
went
out
into
the
corridor
.
Someone
had
found
some
candles
,
and
a
dim
yellow
light
illuminated
the
reception
hall
.
The
driver
of
the
Humvee
came
in
through
the
swing
doors
holding
a
cardboard
tray
and
a
paper
sack
.
He
wore
a
long
black
coat
and
a
peaked
chauffeur
’
s
cap
.
"
Sorry
about
the
delay
,
"
he
said
,
hoarsely
.
"
I
got
everybody
the
same
:
a
couple
of
burgers
,
large
fries
,
large
Coke
,
and
apple
pie
.
I
’
ll
eat
mine
out
in
the
car
.
"
He
put
the
food
down
,
then
walked
back
outside
.
The
smell
of
fast
food
filled
the
lobby
.
Shadow
took
the
paper
bag
and
passed
out
the
food
,
the
napkins
,
the
packets
of
ketchup
.
