  When Sir Eudoric Dambertson’s stagecoach line was running smoothly, Eudoric thought of expansion. He would extend the line from Kromnitch to Sogambrium, the capital of the New Napolitanian Empire. He would order a second coach. He would hire a scrivener to relieve him of the bookkeeping. ... The initial step would be to look over the Sogambrian end of the route. So he posted notices in Zurgau and Kromnitch that, on a certain day, he would, instead of turning around at Kromnitch to come back to Zurgau, continue on to Sogambrium, carrying those who wished to pay the extra fare. Eudoric got a letter of introduction from his silent partner, Baron Emmerhard of Zurgau, who once had almost become Eudoric’s father-in-law. The letter presented Eudoric to the Emperor’s brother, the Archduke Rolgang. “For a gift,” said Emmerhard, fingering his graying beard, “I’ll send one of my best hounds with thee. Nought is done at court without presents.” “Very kind of you, sir,” said Eudoric. “Not so kind as all that. Be sure to debit the cost of the bitch to operating expenses.” . . .

  “You fell out of the sky,” coyote said. Still curled up tight, lying on her side, her back pressed against the overhanging rock, the child watched the coyote with one eye. Over the other eye she kept her hand cupped, its back on the dirt. “There was a burned place in the sky, up there alongside the rimrock, and then you fell out of it,” the coyote repeated, patiently, as if the news was getting a bit stale. “Are you hurt?” She was all right. She was in the plane with Mr. Michaels, and the motor was so loud she couldn’t understand what he said even when he shouted, and the way the wind rocked the wings was making her feel sick, but it was all right. They were flying to Canyonville. In the plane. She looked. The coyote was still sitting there. It yawned. It was a big one, in good condition, its coat silvery and thick. The dark tear line back from its long yellow eye was as clearly marked as a tabby cat’s. She sat up slowly, still holding her right hand pressed to her right eye. “Did you lose an eye?” the coyote asked, interested. . . .
