  Having had the task of greeting the new arrivals firmly dumped in my
  lap, I began to wonder why I had accepted that cumbersome title all
  those millenia ago.  I removed the jeweled scabbard containing Light
  Bringer from my back and lightly laid my hand on the pommel stone and an
  intricate peace knot appeared around the hilt of the sword and the
  scabbard and I restrapped the scabbard to my back.  I removed my crystal
  helm and said "Greetings Dreadmaster Th'Sollar, I guess I lead here at
  the moment seeing as I have been given the task of greeting you and your
  fist."  Hearing Zarth's dreadfull war cry "Shlice and Dihice!" echoing
  from the camp I spun round quickly and saw Zarth furiously slashing at a
  barrier Jemalas had created arround himself and whoever the Lady who
  accompanied him was.  Reaching over my shoulder I touched the pommel of
  my sword again and the peace knot vanished,  I drew the blade and said
  "Well Jemalas what do you have to say for yourself,  be quick with your
  explanation or I shall dissolve your barrier and yes, I am quite aware
  that it is probably immune to Tamriellian magic, but who said my magic
  was Tamriellian?  Well, we're waiting for your explanation."
