A scene

The Netherman necromancer Grishak has never been welcome in Cimmeria, so he enters the stockade looking like a lean, dark-haired trapper with a pack of furs. His borrowed face is flawless. The dogs do not bark and the headman offers him a seat by the fire. Then the headman's wife asks where he comes from, and Grishak answers in his own voice, a deep goblin rasp like gravel in a bucket. The room goes very quiet. He has most of an hour left, and no idea how to spend it.
