- “A seven-pointed sheriff’s badge rode high on the duster’s lapel. Someone had dug it up from one of the prop or costume trailers. After Stealth’s lesson at the gate, Gorgon had taken it upon himself to patrol the streets, halls, and rooftops of the Mount. He wore the silver star with grim pride.
- “Morning,” he said.
- “Gorgon. Surprised to see you here.”
- “Had to make a drop-off. Fight in the mushroom farm.”
- “Again?”
- “The big guy, Mikkelson,” said one of the guards. “Throwing his weight around again, yelling about starving.”
- “I put him down,” said Gorgon. His head tilted a bit, a twitch, and let the lenses catch the light. “He hit his head on one of the trays and cut his forehead.”
- “Still weird to see you here,” said St. George with a half-smile.
- Gorgon coughed. “I was the only one who could carry him up the damned stairs. You know what the Stage Five farm’s like.”
- They all nodded.”
