"True," said Hunaruan. "Many men lost their lives fighting for our kingdom."

"It will be my pleasure to smash those scumbags," said Gribber.
"We must return to Lafniap," said Hunaruan. "But where is Nethstel?"

"He has not fallen," said Frumer. "Here he is."
Frumer walked forward carrying Nethstel on his back. He put him down and called for Benbur.
"Benbur," he cried. "Come and heal him."
Benbur walked up and, with his Gumental power, healed him. Nethstel coughed and arose, then he drew his sword.
"Where are the redheads?" he said as he looked around. "Have we won?"
"Yes, we have won," said Hunaruan. "Thanks to Gribber Steeltoe. If it were not for him, we would have lost."
"Hey," said Lanceren. "What about me? I went out there and helped him."
Gribber looked at him and smiled.
"So, you still haven't learned," said Gribber. "After all that time, you still haven't learned."
"I've learned some," said Lanceren. "I've learned that I'm strong, but you're stronger."
"If you're stronger than anything, it might be an ant," said Gribber.
"Okay, we've already gone over this," said Frumer.
"Yeah, where's my brother?" asked Lanceren. "WHERE IS HE?"
"He fell," said Pumperin.
"Oh, you are the ultimate death man. You know everyone who's died, EVEN MY BROTHER," said Lanceren.
"Redworn killed your brother. I would have saved him, but I could not," said Pumperin.
