@kari-karast, ah, your picture makes sense now. I thought that was a clay tablet or something. @andrew
Sorry for being gone so long. I missed the whole awkward conversation, even though I started it. And it sounds like I’m the one person who likes awkward conversations. In books, that is, not in real life, of course. I didn’t think Karim would answer him.

Aleck was confused. Who was this “phantom warrior” who had appeared. What was with this showdown between Karim and the phanotm warrior? The tension was killing him. He hated tension.
“Look!” He shouted, blushing as he did. He hadn’t meant to speak out loud. “Look, we don’t have time for this! I don’t know about you, but Gradgrind and I are going to get the jewels now. And it would be wise if you come with me, because then we have more chance of getting it, and we will be able to help the slaves faster. Look, Karim, the guys not answering you, just kill him already! If he wanted to be on our side, which he obvioulsy doesn’t, he would speak, so kill the guy.”
