Chapter Forty-three: OVERLOOK

Mad laughter rolled out of that high crystal room on top of that tower at Overlook. Somebody was tickled silly about the way things were going up north.

"That's three of them down, half a job done. And the hard half at that. Get the other three and it's all mine."

More insane mirth.

The Shadowmaster gazed out at the brilliant expanse of whiteness. "Is it time to release you from your prison, my beauties of the night? Time to let you run free in the world again? No, no. Not just this moment. Not till this island of safety is invulnerable."
