The Deavys
“Simwan continued to study their surroundings as he followed the feline’s lead. “What is it, Pithfwid? You see something?”
“Indeed I do,” the cat informed him. “I suggest we pursue our inquiries there.” Raising one paw, he pointed. Not far ahead up Fifth Avenue (the wide boulevard that separates the park from the line of hideously expensive apartment buildings to the east), a small cylindrical kiosk stood on the park side, like a nail emerging from an old board. Constructed of brightly paint...ed wood in the style of its nineteenth-century predecessors, it sported a conical roof of green copper plating and slivered side windows of leaded glass. The interior glowed with a sepulchral light that only a very few highly attuned non-Ords could detect. But cats could see it easily.
Pithfwid sounded pleased as he strained once more at the leash. “Just what we need,” he told his humans. “An information booth!”
Hundreds of such general merchandise kiosks, of varying shape, size, and architectural merit, dotted the streets of the great city.MoreLess
