“Reputations are fine up to a point. After that they become a pain!”
-D. JUAN
THERE is something sinfully satisfying about doing something you know you aren’t supposed to. This was roughly my frame of mind as I approached a specific nondescript tent at the Bazaar at Deva with my breakfast under my arm … guilty, but smug.
“Excuse me, young sahr!”
I turned to find an elderly Deveel waving desperately at me as he hurried forward. Normally I would have avoided the encounter, as Deveels are always selling something and at the moment I wasn’t buying, but since I wasn’t in a hurry I decided to hear what he had to say.
“I’m glad I caught you in time,” he said, struggling to catch his breath. “While I don’t usually meddle, you really don’t want to go in there!”
“Why not? I was just….”
“Do you know who lives there?”
“Well, actually I thought….”
“That is the dwelling of the Great Skeeve!”
Something about this busybody irritated me. Maybe it was the way he never let me finish a sentence. Anyway, I decided to string him along for a while.”
“The Great Skeeve?”
“You never heard of him?” The Deveel seemed genuinely shocked. “He’s probably the most powerful magician at the Bazaar.”
