Remember this part of the story?
“”Lamassu,
for those sufficiently interested was actually the name of Hypatia’s guardian
(of COURSE she existed before the Alexandrian library). He protected her like a lion from her
beginnings and THAT is where the iconography of his speed and strength
occurs. There were a succession of
dapper, lion-like men with the strength of bulls who protected the Bhubezi
Women, but that’s part of another story”.
Anyway:
When we left him last he was
surreptitiously pulling a piece of Erichs map out his Saville row suit pocket,
and one glyph in the corner was glowing.
Worse, if he had to leave in a hurry, the two Finders were still
missing.
The Moor minions were also looking
hugely suspicious and all this attention was causing his Man-Face to slip to
his older self - the one who tackled the Barbarians who mistreated Hypatia.
How much more…
and suddenly
The Red Giraffe and Traveller were at his elbow, pulling him back to
sanity.
“GET A GRIP”!
“We have the key”!
