When I became a creature of the desert tunnels, survival became easier but also more difficult. I gained in physical abilities and experience, qualities necessary for survival. I could defeat almost anything that wandered into my chosen territory. But it didn't take long for me to discover the nemesis that I could neither defeat nor avoid. It followed me wherever I went - in fact, the farther I went, the more suffocating it enveloped me. My enemy was loneliness, the endless, unbroken silence of the silent corridors. (Drigt Do Erden, from the introduction on the back cover of the book)
