Shemanaged to get her arm in beside her sister's, but there it stuck andshe could not move it. Narahdarn, who was watching her, saw what hadhappened and followed her up the tree. Finding he could not pull herarm out, in spite of her cries, he chopped it off, as he had done hersister's. After one shriek, as he drove his comebo through her arm, shewas silent....
