    The Mystery in Bridgetown

    Whisper nods very slightly and quietly responds to his friend. "I think we may be dealing with more of a fear situation, here, but I am still in favor of the direct approach, as you suggest." Moving to within a reasonable distance so that he can speak in a normal voice, Whisper says, "We are...

    Oppression vs. Ambition

    Whiron laughs. “Sand Crab? Are you making fun of the color of my skin? We are all slaves in the same mudhole. You are fools if you think you are something more.” He lifts his harpoon in his harpoon in his right hand, but it is a feint. He intends to throw a shell with his left, causing it to...

    The Mystery in Bridgetown

    Whsiper makes a scoffing sound and speaks loudly enough to be heard by the witch. “And here my friend was suggesting that we give you a chance, yet you prove yourself to be a fool. So be it.” Knowing that the wolves will be faster than he can ready his sling, he will prepare to defend himself...

    The Mystery in Bridgetown

    Whisper looks over at Jaguar and quickly, almost imperceptibly, shakes his head. He answers as quietly as possible so as to not be heard by the witch. “I think we can take the wolves, if we must. I have no interest in anything this woman has to say. She is either insane or completely deluded.” 2, 4

    Oppression vs. Ambition

    Whiron scoffs at the other boys, being wary against any sudden attack. “Obviously you have not thought this through for anything long term. If we give you all that we have, we will not likely be able to continue to earn, since we will starve. We will give you these four fish has payment that way...

    The Mystery in Bridgetown

    “Too populated with people?” Whisper scoffs incredululously. “We made the right decision to after this witch. We must find her. She will likely recruit more gullibe fools to do her bidding; and like the coward she is, run and hide while others take the fall. I wonder who this, ‘Master of the...

    Oppression vs. Ambition

    Having become somewhat successful at maintaining his life, Whiron says that he would like to rest for few minutes under the shade before he and his friend return to work. “I think that is a good idea. You should have no trouble making the launcher just like I did. I also like the taste of fish...

    The Mystery in Bridgetown

    Whisper takes a deep breath to affirm his resolve for what he knows he must do. Following his friends lead, he will absorb the lifeforce of his enemy in order to recover his own. Afterward, he joins the interrogation. “What malevolence provoked you to harm others, especially children, for...

    Oppression vs. Ambition

    Whiron nods his head, slowly, truly thinking about the harpoon. “Yes, yes I do. The hard part will be the launcher, but we have captured enough animals that we should have plenty of line. I have thought about making a trap; but even if we do and fill it with Swimmer Crabs or small fish, we still...

    Oppression vs. Ambition

    Whiron removes his hat and vigorously runs his hands through his long white hair. He takes a deep breath enjoying the two seconds of the cooling sensation he caused. “Hmm, I could probably wet my hair for the same effect. I had not considered that before. Anyway, I agree with you, but I also...

    Oppression vs. Ambition

    Whiron sets his hat on the ground beside him, as he sits beside his friend. He wipes the sweat from his brow with his forearm, not that it helps much. “It is nice to be getting enough food to eat, but you are right. This is monotonous; but again, I agree about the Highlands. We basically know...

    The Mystery in Bridgetown

    Though neither he nor his partner seem to be faring well, initially, Whisper can think of nothing else to do other than employ the same tactic, but suddenly realizes that he can use an ingot of iron instead of a stone. He aims for the same girl as before, hoping to take one out. 7, 2

    Oppression vs. Ambition

    Whiron shrugs and gestures as if to signal that one plan may be as good as another. “Thanks for the reminder on the cane. I need to do the same thing. I guess we could catch a couple of crabs and crush them for bait, but that will probably guarantee us a black rat. We should probably forget the...

    Oppression vs. Ambition

    Whiron follows and retrieves the shells that jalakaag tosses to him. He performs the same task, but his mind is on the possibility of catching game. He thinks that he has a bit of affinity with animals, as he has always been able to get much closer to them than other people can, but he is not...

    The Mystery in Bridgetown

    Oppression vs. Ambition

    Whiron goes through the motions of records and exchange without really paying any attention to what he is doing. He is thinking, as well. He removes his hat as he sits in the shade, hearing the words of his friend. “I could not agree more, and I have an idea. I was thinking of using the string...
