@ "I suppose I'll starve to death[Pestilence:] And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals,
and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four
beasts saying, Come and see. And I saw, and behold a white
horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given
unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.

[War:] And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the
second beast say, Come and see. And there went out another
horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon
to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one
another: and there was given unto him a great sword.

[Famine:] And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the
third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black
horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his
hand. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say,
A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley
for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.

[Death:] And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the
voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see. And I looked, and
behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death,
and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over
the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with
hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

An invisible choir  
sings, and you are  
bathed in radiance. 
The voice of OfflerBlind Io took up the dice-box, which was a skull whose various
orifices had been stoppered with rubies, and with several of
his eyes on the Lady he rolled three fives.  She smiled.  This
was the nature of the Lady's eyes:  they were bright green,
lacking iris or pupil, and they glowed from within.

The room was silent as she scrabbled in her box of pieces and,
from the very bottom, produced a couple that she set down on
the board with two decisive clicks.  The rest of the players,
as one God, craned forward to peer at them.

"A wenegade wiffard and fome fort of clerk," said Offler the
Crocodile God, hindered as usual by his tusks.  "Well,
weally!"  With one claw he pushed a pile of bone-white tokens
into the centre of the table.

The Lady nodded slightly.  She picked up the dice-cup and held
it as steady as a rock, yet all the Gods could hear the three
cubes rattling about inside.  And then she sent them bouncing
across the table.

A six.  A three.  A five.

Something was happening to the five, however.  Battered by the
chance collision of several billion molecules, the die flipped
onto a point, spun gently and came down a seven.  Blind Io
picked up the cube and counted the sides.

"Come _on_," he said wearily, "Play fair."
