Rogers participated in an archeological dig on the Greek

Islands. After one exhausting but successful day, she neverthe-

less continued working into the night enthusiastically recording

the large number of artifacts the team had unearthed.

Many enticing pieces of jewelry, eating utensils, and body

armor had been recovered — but three specific items stood out

from the rest.

The first was a shield. Though obviously buried for hun-

dreds of years, it was as sturdy and shiny as if it had been forged

only yesterday.

The second item was a human skull, and it had been found

on top of the shield, as if the shield had been used as a serving

tray to display the skull.

The third item was a sword. Like the shield, the sword did

not appear to have suffered any damage for having been buried

for so long. It was so shiny, Ethel caught her reflection in it. She

stared into her own eyes.

A pair of fiery red eyes stared back.

That night, the three artifacts vanished.
