  In a cave hidden in the rocks, a bandit named Kachin lay in a five-yard deep
pit and cried.  It was so senseless, so stupid!  Such a simple trap!  Had it
been a sophisticated mechanism that killed him, he would have said nothing
(he thought.  Of course he would have complained in that case too, if he
could).  But a plain pit, without spikes or burning coals or snakes!

  He had played on his flute for days now.  His supplies were gone, and he was
on the verge of death.  He had licked up the saliva that had come out of his
flute, he had used up every bit of fluid he could get hold of, including his
own urine and the blood of a rat that had made the mistake of looking over the
edge of the pit - he had thrown his dagger and surprisingly hit it - but now he
knew he was lost.  Nobody had heard him, his flute had become more and more
faint,  and now he was only able to lie around, cry, and lick up his own tears.

  His only hope was the return of the dragon.  Mat, send me that dragon!  I am
so thirsty!  I need a dragon!  I need a great blue dragon with lots of blood
in it!  Mat, pleeeaase, give back my dr

  The dead body of a bandit lay at the bottom of a pit in a cave in the rocks.
