Rangers Apprentice By John Flanagan Prologue more Gareth Lord of the Mountains of Rain and Night former Baron of Golan, in the kingdom of here alone looked at over his bleak, rain swept domain and for perhaps the 1000th time, cursed. This was all that was left to him now a jumble of rugged granite cliffs, tumbled boulders and icy mountains of sheer gorges and steep, narrow passes of gravel and rock with never a tree or a sign of green to break the monotony. Even though it had been 15 years since he had been driven back into this forbidding realm that had become his prison, he could still remember the pleasant green glades and thickly forested hills of his former fief. The streams filled with fish and the fields rich with crops and game. Gordon had been a beautiful living place. The mountains of rain and night were dead and desolate. A platoon of war eagles was drilling in the cattle yard below him. Margarethe watched them for a few seconds, listening to the guttural rhythmic chant that accompanied all their movements. They were stocky, misshapen beings with features that we're halfway human but with a long, brutish muzzle and fangs like a bear or a large dog.
