The Five take counsel again: chapter 38 of Gantzor the Coldsword


The Deep Lord’s return has been thwarted.

It is as I foreboded. 

Murnag ta-Valka is farsighted among the Ûthégri.

Compliance is required, not flattery!

The Deep Lord’s anya must find a new house of flesh. 

And He must possess the Sword.

The Sword is again lost.

Did the Seer not say ‘Dreygan’s blade under Hogunoth laid’? It shall be found. 

But none can wield the Sword unscathed save the hand of Dreygan.

Then He must possess the hand of Dreygan.

How shall that be achieved?

Dreygan’s body lies in Kapgar Kûm.

How can the anya house itself again?

It needs flesh of its flesh and bone of its bone.

Then the Thrâkúna must be loosed.

Three things shall be brought: the Sword, the Hand, the Thrâkúna.
