is, I want no question of injustice."
9 So the vote was held again. This time there was no question. Proud
Newt, who had been called Little Newt, and come out of the Land of Mu
riding behind The Hawk on his dog, became First Speaker. Who would have
dreamed this scrawny little boy could grow to win the love of a Land?
10 The Hawk and his Lady took a house near The First Speaker's House
and spent there their final days. One day a servant went in to wake them, and found them in
each other's embrace. They had both gone to The Lords. As The Lady Hawk had said many times, "When your
Hour passes, mine shall pass also. We shall walk through that Veil of Tears side by side. Neither of us
shall go without the other!" So strong was their love they would not be parted by death.
11 So it was, the last of a Great Generation passed away.
