Summary
Scattered, they flamed like distant suns, maddening the beholder. United, they became a godlike power for the glory of the Solar System. But, their flame lances still white-hot from killing, young Ormondy and the fabulous Firebird learned how impossible was the price of that power.
The bearded giant, Thymar Ormondy, raised stiffly on one arm from the bed of litter on the damp cave floor. He pointed the charred stub of his other arm at his son.
"Beware the Firebird!" His voice was distorted with pain. "She'll kill a thousand men for every one of the Seven Jewels of Chamar."
