Baxil and his cousin [[Av]] walk down a corridor of the palace of [[Ashno of Sages]]. Their [[Shalash|mistress]] walks ahead and stops at an intersection. She asks for his bag of tools, and she proceeds into the Hallowed Hall. Shewhere she begins to destroy any works of art depicting Shalash -- slashing paintings with a knife and pounding on sculptures with malletsa mallet. As she works, Baxil and Av talk about going to the Nightwatcher. Baxil claims he can avoid the curse by phrasing his request just right, but Av says it doesn't matter what your boon is, you get a curse no matter what. Baxil wishes he could get some courage using the Old Magic.
