Within the fastness of Haug Heikur was a chamber which none but the master may open. In it were kept eight heads of men long dead which by sorcerous means were preserved and compelled to answer questions put to them in full candor.

"Had I occasion to assemble a council, I should prefer men who had not suffered so signal a reduction with regard to their persons."
