Without a scrap of proof of any kind he knew she was telling truth unadorned or at .least the truth as 6he saw it Eye to eye, there are times when no proof is needed. "Without my leave, Muhammad Anim sent five hundred men on a foray toward the Khyber. Bull-with-a-beard needed an Englishman's head, for proof for a spy of his who could not enter Khinjan Caves. They trapped your brother outside AH Masjid with fifty of his men. They took his head after a long fight, leaving more than a hundred of their own in payment. "Bull-with-a-beard was pleased. But he was careless, and I sent my men to steal the head from his men. I needed evidence for you. And I swear to you I swear to you by my gods who have brought us two together that I first knew it was your brother's head when you held it up in the Cavern of Earth's Drink! Then I knew It could not be anybody else's head!" "Why bid me throw it to them, then?" he asked her, and he was aware of her scorn before the wards had left his lips. She leaned back again and looked at him through lowered eyes, as if she must study him all anew. She seemed to find it hard to believe that he really thought so in the commonplace. "What is a head to me, or to you a head with no life in it carrion! compared to what shall be? Would you have known it was his head if you had thrown it to them when I ordered you?" , He understood. Some of her blood was Russian, some Indian. "A friend is a friend, but a brother is a rival," says the East, out of world old experience, and in some ways Russia is more eastern than the East itself. "Muhammad Anim shall answer to you fof your brother's head!" she said with a little nod, as if she were making concessions to a child. "At present we need him. Let him preach his jihad, and loose it' at the right time. After that he will be in the way! You shall name his death Earth's Drink slow torture fire! Will that content you?" "No," he said, with a dry laugh. "What more can you ask?" "Less! My brother died at the head of his men. He couldn't ask more. Let Bull-with-a-beard alone." She set both elbows on her knees and laid her chine on both hands to

stare at him again., He began to remember long-forgotten schoolboy lore about chemical reagents, that dissolve materials into their component parts, such was the magic of her. eyes. There were no .eyes like hers that he bad ever seen, although Rewa Gunga's had been something like them. Only Rewa Gunga's had. not changed so. Thought of the Rangar no sooner crossed his mind than she was speaking of him. "Rewa Gunga met you in the dark, beyond those outer curtains, did he not?" she asked. He nodded. "Did he tell you that if you pass the curtains you shall be told all I know?" He nodded again, and she laughed.
