'Cohen is my name, boy' Belthan's hands stopped moving.
|
||||||
|
'Cohen?' she said, 'Cohen the Barbarian?'
|
||||||
|
'The very shame.'
|
||||||
|
'Hang on, hang on,' said Rincewind, 'Cohen's a great big chap, neck like a bull,
|
||||||
|
got chest muscles like a sack of footballs. I mean, he's the Disc's greatest
|
||||||
|
warrior, a legend in his own lifetime. I remember my grandad telling me he saw
|
||||||
|
him ... my grandad telling me he ... my grandad ...'
|

He faltered under the gimlit gaze.
|

|
'Oh,' he said, 'Oh. Of course, Sorry.'
|
||||||
|
'Yesh,' said Cohen, and sighed, 'Thatsh right boy, I'm a lifetime in my own
|
||||||
|
legend.'

|
Death sat at one side of a black baize table in the entre of the room, arguing
|
||||||
|
with Famine, War and Pestilence. Twoflower was the only one to look up and
|
||||||
|
notice Rincewind.
|
||||||
|
'Hey, how did you get here?' he said.
|
||||||
|
'Well, some say that the creator took a handful - oh, I see, well, it's hard to
|
||||||
|
explain but I -'
|
||||||
|
'Have you got the Luggage?'
|
||||||
|
The wooden box pushed past Rincewind and settled down in front of its owner,
|
||||||
|
who opened its lid and rummaged around inside until he came up with a small,
|
||||||
|
leatherbound book which he handed to War, who was hammering the table with a
|
||||||
|
mailed fist.
|
||||||
|
'It's "Nosehinger on the Laws of Contract",' he said. 'It's quite good, there's
|
||||||
|
a lot in it about double finessing and how to -'
|
||||||
|
Death snatched the book with a bony hand anflipped through the pages, quite
|
||||||
|
oblivious to the presence of the two men.
|
||||||
|
'RIGHT,' he said, 'PESTILENCE, OPEN ANOTHER PACK OF CARDS. I'M GOING TO GET TO
|
||||||
|
THE GOTTOM OF THIS IF IT KILLS ME. FIGURATIVELY SPEAKING OF COURSE.'
