GALEN:

Me too...

He plucks a low-hanging leaf, waves a hand over it, and

watches it turn into a spray of daffodils.

HODGE:

No you don't. All you care about is

the tricks and knavery. Well, you

don't pull any wool over these old

eyes. It'll be a mighty long walk

before you fill his shoes, you mark

my word.

GALEN:

What's the matter, Hodge, pack too

heavy? Here.

He gives the pack a slap. It flies out of its harness and

floats alongside them. Hodge snatches it back and clutches

it tightly.

HODGE:

Careful with that!

GALEN:

Too cold, is it?

A great coat drapes itself over Hodge's shoulders.

HODGE:

Stop it!

GALEN:

Too warm?

The greatcoat disappears, as do the rest of his garments,

leaving him in his smalls.

HODGE:

(spluttering)

Stop it, I say! Out of respect for

the master!

Suppressing a grin, Galen mercifully waves his hand and

restores Hodge to his usual costume.

GALEN:

I've got as much respect for the

master as anyone, old man. But --

then again, I'm master now.

CUT TO:

TRAVELERS' CAMP - NIGHT

The Urlanders are gathered around a fire, sharing a meager

supper. The man named Greil pokes at the stew-pot.

GREIL:

I left my farm with seeds unplanted,

calves unborn, nothing but a wife to

chase down the strays, and for what?

A funeral, that's what.

He walks up and down behind Valerian.

GREIL:

Because some people said, find a

magician. Not just a local fellow,

an import, a good forty leagues from

home. An all-powerful necromancer.

Ha -- some necromancer!

Malkin, an older man, speaks up.

MALKIN:

Hold your tongue, Greil. Sit. Eat.

GREIL:

I'll not sit. I'll not eat. See you

the Great Bear. His tail points east.

It's the equinox. Have you forgotten?

Or rather not think about it?

VALERIAN:

(miserable)

He's right. I brought us here for

nothing. May the gods help whoever's

daughter it is tonight.

There is a noise from the darkness beyond the campfire. Two

of the men get to their feet and listen. At first silence,

then more rustling. Without a word the two men dart into the

bushes and haul two interlopers before the company: Galen

and Hodge.

HODGE:

Good morrow, good morrow. Peace be

with you.

GALEN:

Easy now. We mean no harm. We've

been looking for you.

GREIL:

(growl)

Well, you've found us.

GALEN:

(brushing himself off)

More the other way around, I'd say.

VALERIAN:

What do you want?

GALEN:

A few words, that's all. You were

looking for a conjurer.

VALERIAN:

He's dead.

GALEN:

Right. Requiscat in pace.

(he takes a deep breath)

Ecce:
magister novus!

GREIL:

How say you?

Galen surveys the puzzled faces. He draws himself up and

plunges in:

GALEN:

My lord Ulrich is no longer. All

that you asked of him, you may now

expect of me. The dangers he would

face, I will now conquer. The task

he would undertake I will now fulfill.

I am Galen Bradwardyn, inheritor of

Ulrich's craft and knowledge, and I

am the Sorcerer you seek.

There is a moment of depressed silence. Hodge rolls his eyes.

Greil starts to chuckle, then to laugh. Soon the others are

laughing too.

GREIL:

Well, that's a handsome thought, O

wizard of wizards. But if there's

one thing our friend Tyrian has shown

us, it's to beware the pig in the

poke. Who's got a dagger?

HODGE:

No tests!!

GREIL:

Call it proof, then.
