The Laws of Magic 6: Hour of Need
“Aubrey, George and Sophie were sitting in front of Saltin’s desk in hard chairs.

Before he could respond, George cut in. ‘Traitor? Aubrey? I should think not, Saltin. If it weren’t for Aubrey, Divodorum would be overrun with giant mechanical golems.’ ‘Mechanical golems?’ Saltin fingered his moust...ache. ‘This sounds as if you have a tale to tell me.’ The tale took some telling, enough for Major Saltin to interrupt it in the middle and summon coffee, apologising for the poor quality before the story resumed.
