We are the last of our kind, but we would make wonderful companions."</strong></em><br/><br/>One of Konin's eyebrows rose as he processed the unusual offer she was making.  Two harem girls were presenting themselves to him.  He recalled the last time a pair of concubines did such a thing.  It was a fond memory indeed, that made the barbarian-thief show a half-smile.<br/><br/>Suddenly, a guard was making his rounds.  Konin sheathed his dagger and lay atop the two women, covering their mouths, but keeping their noses free to breathe.<br/><br/><strong>"Utter not a sound, lest your lives be forfeit."</strong><br/><br/>The guard stopped in front of a nearby pile of pillows.  He seemed to be admiring a different pair of sleeping beauties.  Konin silently rose and got behind the man, wrapping a tree-like arm around the man's neck and squeezing until he passed out.  He lay the man gently on the floor, more to avoid noise than to prevent further injury.<br/><br/><strong>"I fear the window of opportunity is closing.  I will take my leave now.  Feel free to follow me, but be silent and stay in the shadows."</strong><br/><br/>Konin stood and quietly departed the pile of pillows, making his way to a window.  Seeing it was clear, he motioned for the two women to follow him, and helped them out of the window to the soft grass below that was behind a bush.<br/><br/>If Konin could steal these two harem girls, they would make grand prizes.  But still, he wondered what one of them meant by "last of our kind."<br/>
