?BlindWorld?? I said again, my voice now disapproving?Yes, well, some who have lived there prefer to call it the Singing World?And some who've never been there call it Planet of the Bats,? the Seeker mutteredI turned my eyes to her, feeling them narrow as my mind dredged up the appropriate image of
the ugly flying rodent she referred to?I assume you are one who has never lived there, Seeker,? the Healer said lightly?We called

?What events??
The Healer looked down without answering?What events??I demanded again?I believe I have a right to knowKevin? physically attacked a Healer while not? himself?He knocked the Healer unconscious with a blow from his fist and then found a scalpel
