"Erzähl mir eine Geschichte." Das Ungeheuer, das ihn bewachte, machte es sich vor Kihrins Kerkerzelle bequem. "Was ist das?", fragte er. "Ein magischer Stein." "Und was kann er?" "Er hört zu." Und der Junge aus den Elendsvierteln von Quur erzählt. Er erzählt von seinem Leben als Dieb, von seinem blinden Vater und davon, wie ihn ein Prinz für seinen verloren geglaubten Sohn hielt. Er erzählt wie er am Sklavenmarkt verkauft wurde und warum er jetzt in einer düsteren Gefängniszelle sitzt, bewacht von einem Ungeheuer, das zum Plaudern aufgelegt ist.
