                       THE COMING OF THE ZIOTH
                          TURN THIRTY-SEVEN
                          ZIEDON'S ADVENTURE


   Ziedon, days before, had made sure to memorize useful parts of
Ardith's map. When he was sufficiently distant from his party, he
placed his own two unremarkable maps on the ground, and placed an "X"
at his approximate location. The "X," unfortunately, was in the dirt,
for one map showed only the way from Grenzig to Rakbaven, and the other
showed only from Rakbaven to an insignificant place on the path to
Maelbourg.
   Once Ziedon got closer to the tower, he thought, he would be able to
recognize landmarks from memory as well as those etched onto his maps.
   Three days of scrambling through dense forest passed before Ziedon
realized he was completely lost.
