Dust of Dreams/Chapter 22

__NOTOC__
The children of the Snake have entered the Crystal City and found water and food. Badalle hunts Brayderal; when she finds her she uses her new power of Command to expel her from the city. Meanwhile Saddic has been exploring crystal caverns under the city, the walls of which somehow retain visual records of the original inhabitants: they were Jaghut and the city was called Icarias. They were killed by K'Chain Che'Malle.
The Bonehunters' camp wakes to discover Gesler and Stormy missing; they have been extracted from their tent, the only clues being slashes in the canvas and a smell of K'Chain Che'Malle. Quick Ben guesses that a Shi'Gal Assassin is responsible.
Gesler and Stormy wake, alone apart from Kalyth. She explains that she is Destriant to the K'Chain Che'Malle, and they are to be their Mortal Sword and Shield Anvil.
