The Gallant Return of Kathryn and Tobin: Part One
“No no no no no no no no no no no noooooooooooo!”

Passers-by slowed down and turned surreptitiously to get a look at the blue Ogrin in the bright yellow rain hat lying in the middle of the cobblestone street screaming bloody murder as if the world had come to an end.
