They are then invited by a mysterious, evil dark skinned abbot to be his guest (prisoner). The abbot is an incubus with designs on the girl, but the soldiers discover his secrets and destroy him. They then decide to draw lots to decide which of the should take the girl, who they no longer wish to hand over tot heir King. The girl chooses her lover for herself. In The Treader In The Dust a man foolishly invokes an ancient demon with the power to induce premature ageing. Shocked by the beginnings of the corruption in his servant, and his house, the man flees. Three days later, he steels himself to go back, and sees the house covered in dust as if centuries old. Much that he touches crumbles to dust, chairs, sections of wall, etc. He knows he is doomed, and watches helplessly as the dust demon comes for him. Only his own footprints give any clue to his wherabouts when the dilapidated once proud house is discovered. In | |
