Zarz the Fury - Quick ref

-I will take them with me, for they have come here and I have claimed you, so my rule dictates and so it shall be fulfilled-.

But He'rraar knew that the shadow creature loved gambling and would be up for an easy game, so he said:

-How about we make a little deal, if in three chances you manage to guess my exact number of hairs, from head to tail, you take them.

But if you fail then you will let them go without rancor and let me take what I have come for.

-Well, so be it," answered the creature, his look was confident, he was sure that something like that for him was nothing.

So it began:

-One, two...fifteen, seventeen...-But then the goldfinch appeared and trilled with marvelous force:

"- Cheer cheer chir, O the hare, big-eared and amber-eyed, doomed hare, come into the light with me.

O the hare, hare of unperturbed sleep, with your swift paws and restless nose, overcome your fears and guide my desires, Cheer cheer chir -"

and the creature distracted by his beautiful song, the count was lost.

-Now you go for the second try," replied He'rraar, and he glared at his friend the goldfinch.

And he began again:

-twenty...twenty-one...twenty-four....seventy -But the winds became strong and He'rraar's hair became disheveled, so that he lost track of the hair he counted.

-This is your last chance, said the hare.

The creature frowned and counted ambitiously, he was sure that this time he would not lose, so mesmerized in his target he remained.

-Thirty...fifty-five...two hundred, he counted with such determination that the numbers stopped making sense. He'rraar grew concerned.

-It can't be, this time there is no help, we are lost, oh lost - Raggysnout said with his eyes fixed on the shadow creature.

-No, it's not going to be like that - Zarz said. Watching as Raggysnout's long nose wrinkled.

Then Zars took a couple of wheat leaves and tickled Raggysnout's nose, he couldn't take it anymore and gave a loud sneeze, which echoed through the maze of rock.

The sound was so loud that the shadowy creature was startled and from the impact, and then he lost the count, again.

He'rrar gave a couple of happy thumps to the ground.

-You have lost the game, keep your promise and let them go free.
