		<description><![CDATA[Palenon slept uneasily.  The chair wasn&#8217;t comfortable, but he was exhausted.  Being chased through the Citadel of Kunir by the Lord Commander of the Citadel, pinned to a door by a long knife through the shoulder, and coming face to face with the copper-haired woman who haunted his dreams was too much.
As he slipped into [...]]]></description>
