Olm was the quickest to think. "Teb! Go and tell the mayor he's awake! And try and find that other young mud, Mirv, I think he was called, I want a word with him..."

Teb stood up. "Okay then," he said as he walked outside. The guards began to stop him, then saw that it was him, not Olm or Hunter.

Inside, Olm and Hunter were gathered around Spider. "Are you okay now?" Hunter asked.

"Where am... The village?"

"Yes, you're back here now."

Spider looked around, confused. "But... the flames...?"

"Flames?" It was Olm's turn to look puzzled. "There haven't been any flames, you're back in my hut, and you're safe, don't worry..."

"What happened? Oh hang on, I remember now... Lanar..."

Olm gently patted Spider on the shoulder. "Lanar's dead. You're safe now, I managed to get Jase to make an antidote."

Spider sat up for a few moments, looking around, then collapsed onto his back again with a sigh. "Thank Odd fer that!"

There was a knock on the door, then it opened to reveal six guards and Seltin, the Captian. "All right, come with us, we're taking you to see the mayor, to get this all sorted out..."

Spider frowned. "Get what sorted out?"

Olm sighed. "They still think we kidnapped you..."

"Well, I'll soon sort that out!" Spider leapt to his feet. "Lead the way, Guards!"
