    He was a tall, thin Kougra -- his long arms swinging disjointedly while he walked, as if he was nothing more than a rag doll come to life. The vest he wore was colourless, except for the dirt that clung to it like a gossamer veil, and dark glasses hid his eyes. As he passed, I saw there was a strange parcel attached to his back...
