    In a village lived a dog. He was a lovable but rather a greedy canine, always on the lookout for the next tasty morsel. His eyes would gleam with excitement at the mere scent of food, and he couldn't resist the allure of a delicious treat. 
    One sunny day, as it roamed the village in search of his next culinary adventure, he caught wind of a mouthwatering aroma wafting from a nearby butcher’s shop. Unable to resist the temptation, it followed his nose until he reached the source—a display of succulent meat, neatly arranged in the shop window. 
    Unable to contain his greed, it stood on his hind legs, his front paws resting against the window. His eyes fixated on the tantalizing array of meats, and his mouth watered at the sight. In a moment of pure impulsivity, it decided to snatch a large, juicy bone from the window display. It was a ham bone, and it was his favourite meat.

    The Nobles Are Coming - When...

    The Nobles Are Coming by Arthur Jean Cox - Together they discussed the Nobles—the old prospector and the weary, frightened man. Then—utter terror struck! 
    I rested on reaching what seemed to be the top of the incline, and leaned back against the wall of the cave. For a moment the silence was unbroken. And then in the darkness there was a whisper of movement, an unseen stirring that was stilled by my involuntary, voiceless cry, "What's there!" 
    With only a blurred memory of having reached for it, I found my gun in my hand. 
    "Don't shoot!" said a burry voice. "Allow me to introduce myself: Mister J. J. Abrogado, A-b-r-o-g-a-d-o, Serbo-Croat prospector, at your service!" 
    I lowered the gun hesitantly, letting it waver in the general direction from which the voice came. It was a strange introduction, but the possessor of the voice must have been as frightened by my bursting suddenly into the cave as I had been on finding it already occupied. 
    "What are you doing here?" I asked. 
    "That's supposed to be my question," said Mister J. J. Abrogado. "Who are you? And what was it that frightened you?" 
    "Sorry," I apologized. "My name's Ross. I'm an archeologist. I was on a trip alone in my ground car when it broke down. Being no mechanic, I couldn't fix it. I decided to walk back to Marsport. I walked all day and most of this night, when—Well, listen!" 
    I bent my head to one side. Through the earphones of my headwarmer I could hear from far away a vague presentiment of movement, a dim blur upon the horizon of sound. 
    "The nightrunners," said Abrogado in recognition. "I thought it might have been something else that frightened you." There was an unspoken question in his silence. 
    "What?" I asked, wondering. 
    The cave was like a bottle of blackness. I could see nothing of my companion, not even his head and shoulders which must have been thrust rather sharply forward.
