He broke out into a mocking laugh,
in which the others joined. ''Well, so

that she is a prisoner of war-my pris-

"She is to be released I said, hotly.
81 heard from the Emperor your report.
1t is said that she aided the spy, La

release her.
Griesman took the time deliberately
to draw from his pocket a cigar and to
light it before he spoke. He knew that
was burning with impatience and an
ger. Leaning back and speaking
through a cloud of smoke he made my
heart leap with delight.

The word struck home. For answer
he cursed me, and came in with a great
sweeping stroke that would have cut
me in two had it reached its mark. But
I stopped, caught his blade near my
hilt, and with a strong upward lift and
throw put him off his guard. And,
though it was unwise, considering my
uncertain status with the Emperor, l
was too far gone with hate and with
desperation to recede. My sword came
