“Come, friend, we go, escape, get away!” said Skarlath, keeping his voice to a hoarse whisper.
But the badger acted as if he had not heard his companion. Fierce anger burned in his eyes. Stretching his powerful young limbs, the badger seized a bough of the hornbeam and snapped it from the tree with a single wrench. Smashing the bough against the tree trunk, he broke it in two; then, casting aside the thin end, he gripped the heavier piece with both paws. It was about half his own height, thicker at one end than the other, like some huge rough club. Roaring out his challenge, he charged the unwary vermin around the fire.
“Eeulaliaaaaaa!”
The camp came to life instantly. Two vermin fell under the club as the badger threw himself at Swartt. Before the ferret had half drawn his sword, the badger’s club thudded hard against his foe’s six-clawed paw. Swartt screeched and fell back injured, yelling to his creatures, “Stop him! Kill him!”
Skarlath saw the badger disappear under a crowd of vermin as they tried to bring him down. . . .
