The Weirdstone of Brisingamen
“Grimnir sat a little apart from the brood, while over the top of the hill, in an old quarry, were mustered the svart-alfar.
“They are all there,” said the Morrigan. “And they will not be drawn, though we think the threat of the mara will bring them out once the night is gone. On the move, we shall have them; but we must raise the fimbulwinter at daybreak.
“Is Slinkveal here? Good. The svart-alfar will remain in the quarry until dawn. You will not be needed, but then again, you may.
“The watcher...s have been chosen, and know their duties. Grimnir will accompany us to resume our work.”
Durathror and Fenodyree kept watch by turns throughout the night, and at six o’clock they woke the others: by seven all were ready to go. Day was near, and there was a hard frost.
Colin, Susan, and Gowther were taking with them a change of clothing, food for the whole party, and groundsheets. Fenodyree had made himself a cloak out of an old blanket.
They were about to shoulder their packs when there came a gentle knock at the door.MoreLess
