Part 157: Humakt the Champion: Part IV
Orlanth comes to Humakt, seeking the Death weapon. "You are a stranger now," he says, "and thus beyond the protection of my laws. Therefore, I make you my possession, and all of your possessions are likewise mine. Give me my sword."
"Death is a power you will never understand."
Give him the sword.
"I am no man's thrall; neither am I thrall to god or king."
Leave the realm of the gods.
Bypass Orlanth.
"You rule over many things, but you will never rule Death."
"Your laws are but scribblings on a piece of bark."
The legends may be of some small help.
