Dedicated to my lovely wife Julia Carlson Ricks. This was originally part of a deal for a cover and a graphic novel with an artist who is a friend of mine, but alas, she had other projects she had to move on to and reverted the rights of the script to me. Someday I may ping her and ask to share with you the delightful art she did for the first chapter, but for now, words will have to suffice.
I'm not sure when, if ever, I'll be able to have this put to art. Maybe a kickstarter someday but there are at least two other projects that must come before it; Forever West and a second Fate of Inglemia book. But at least I can share the script with you.
I hope you enjoyed. More content will appear from time to time here. Enjoy!

[Seventh Seal] Page 93 - Chapter 6
Row 1 Box 1 Vesuvius and Sluice look at an unaware Jesra and Pete.
Sluice: Still doesn't seem right that they can't know we're watchin
em.
Vesuvius: Yeah Nungo's a jerk.
Sluice: So why don't we just ignore him?
Vesuvius: Never know when he might be watching....
Row 1 Box 2 Vesuvius leaps up on Sluice's shoulder.
Vesuvius: Besides, if we disobey him he might erase their memories.
Sluice: Sigh.
Vesuvius: Hey. We'll do what we can.
Row 2 Box 1 Close up of Sluice and Vesuvius looking at each other
smiling.
Sluice: Like the wa-
Vesuvius: Hey shhhh! Remember what I said about him watching, he can
read lips.
Sluice: Heh.
Row 2 Box 2 Sluice and Vesuvius look peacefully at Jesra and Pete
kissing, wand in Jesra's hands.

Row 1 Box 1 Jesra looked at Pete.
Jesra: So....
Row 1 Box 2 Pete shrugged and smiled.
Pete: They said that they would be back in a few weeks when they put
things back together on the other side.
Row 1 Box 3 Jesra shook her head.
Jesra: It seems...dumb. We should be learning things. Preparing for
things.
Row 2 Box 1 Pete hugs Jesra.
Pete: They just have their own way of doing things I guess.
Row 2 Box 2 Jesra looks up at Pete.
Jesra: So what does it mean that you're a 'lynchpin'? Do you have
magical powers or something now?”
Row 2 Box 3 Pete tries extending his finger to zap a rock.
Row 3 Box 1 Nothing happens.
Row 3 Box 2 Pete shrugs.
Pete: I guess not.
Row 3 Box 3 Jesra smiles.
Jesra: Look.
Row 3 Box 4 They both see Amanda's wand lying on the ground.

Row 1 Box 1 Narration off Panel: Everything changed that day.
A row of troll prisoners walk through a portal in chains looking
dismayed.
Sluice and Vesuvius look on, quite pleased.
Row 1 Box 2 Narration off Panel: And while the world was not
perfect...
Slither climbs out of the trashcan.
Row 1 Box 3 Narration off Panel: A temporary balance was achieved.
Slither moves through a portal back home.
Row 2 Box 1 Narration off Panel: And a bridge between two worlds was
created.
Nungo shakes hands with Forsalio with Pete, Jesra and Klery next to
him.
Row 2 Box 2 Narration off Panel: That was good, because quite
frankly we could use all the help we could get....
Forsalio waves and heads through a portal.
Row 2 Box 3 Narration off Panel: And for a time, the two young humans
could resume their lives and for a time pretend that things were
normal.
Jesra and Pete looked at each other, smiling.

Row 1 Box 1: All three of them close their eyes.
Row 1 Box 2: Horus throws Sluice backward a great deal.

Row 1 Box 3: A huge amount of energy surrounded by Helvetica
characters, floating papers, and shadow images of the modern world
surround the three.
Row 2 Box 1: Lightning pours the other direction in the link that
Horus has established with them for the ritual.
Row 2 Box 2 Horus begins to burn, and roars upward in pain.
Row 2 Box 3 Horus is reduced to a screaming skull.
Row 3 Box 1 Horus is reduced to nothing but a pile of ash.
Row 3 Box 2 The trolls fighting for Horus all look back in horror.
Row 3 Box 3 The trolls all throw down their weapons.
