The Deep Gods
“Then, as Galta and Lali woke too, and hurled themselves onto the invaders, Daniel broke free from the one who had been attacking Banar; he thrust the fellow back against the rail. With a yell, he fell backward into the water, and Daniel whirled around, reaching down into a chest. He saw that the fire on the stone hearth still burned, feebly; he thrust the quill fuses into the red coals. They hissed and spat; Daniel turned and hurled the clay bombs, one from each hand.

“Banar!” Daniel shouted, pulling loose the knot that moored the boat. “Row, man! Row!”
He had an oar, and thrust hard at the shore; Banar was already at his own bench, his oar thrust out into the creek. The boat lurched and turned; the current helping, it moved farther out.MoreLess
