'Move those maps if you need to, I’m clear on thesituation, for now.''No need,' said John. Sitting, he put his glass on thenearest map. It showed the upper course of the UralRiver, where assumed guerrilla positions had beenpenciled in, then erased, then penciled in again adozen times or more in a neat hand. He looked at thecolonel. Did the fiend want something connected tothe fearsome Yaik Tigers?'Look, Nurlan,' he said. 'I did some mercenary jobs inthe past, but no longer. And I don't fondly recallfighting at your side.''Yes, we have our history, you and I,' said Nurlan.'But I am willing to forget, and it’s not fighting that Iwant from you. There is something only a man ofyour talents can help me get.''Here,' the old soldier tossed Cold a notebook with adark, metallic cover. 'Tell me what you think of that.'Inside, on plastic pages, scribbles scrawled in Cyrillicscript. Some uncertain, rheumatic hand made thecursive nearly undecipherable. Yet there wassomething else. Among them, there were drawings,angry and fast things: A metameteoric compound?Dervish somatoma? And coordinates. A whole seriesof them, marking a path down to the south.John’s eyes gleamed.'I see you’ll take this job,' concluded the colonel.'These might be just hallucinations of a feverishtraveler. But if it proves right and you bring me thismachine' - he put his finger on one of the images - 'allwill be forgotten, our old business. And you’ll berewarded handsomely.'his men around them, not counting the jackals andwhores who squatted against the stronghold’s walls.Both categories would gladly slit John’s throat if hemade a move against their master. Why, there weretwo men hidden behind the tarp separating the room inhalf.Yet precisely for the reason he had placed them there,the colonel’s eyes lingered on the harsh, cold features ofJohn’s face. He knew the man too well.'John, be reasonable. With this somatoma, we couldbring peace to the land,' pleaded the commander.'I know how you and yours brought peace to Yamalia. Iwas there, remember?'Colonel Nurlan paused for a moment. 'So you’ve gottensentimental with age. Fine. Don’t wanna do it? Leave thenotebook on my desk and get the fuck out of here.''I don’t think so. I’m leaving with it.''Like hell you are. Men!'John sprung forward like lightning, his left handextended. He grasped the colonel’s hair, pulling his headback towards him - and down on the desk.

Man, they don’t call you ‘Cold’ for nothing.''Why don’t you do it yourself?' retorted John. 'Itwouldn’t be the first time in history that a borderwarlord went off searching for treasure in thejungle.''The air raids. I can’t spare the men. And anyway, alarge column would be surely spotted by the damnTigers. Take the job.''No.' John finished his drink, stood up casually, thesteel-bound notebook in hand. 'But I’ll take this andkeep it for myself, you dog.' He cracked his neck,grinning.To be continued...The full book can be bought now fromAmazon.

While I've got your attentionA final message from the editor, Raw Egg Nationalist (@babygravy9)Whew! What a ride! Well, thatwas Man’s World Issue 1. First ofall, I want to thank all thecontributors without whosegenerous submissions this issuewould not have been the tour deforce that it was. Great job!There will be a second issue. Ifyou’d like to make a contributionor just to help out, @ or DM me onTwitter and we can discuss youridea. As I said in the openingremarks, it would be nice to havea motoring section, so if you’vegot an idea from a motoringsegment, it would be verywelcome.The brief for articles in general isbroad: anything the right kind of man would want to read. Hopefully youknow what I mean by ‘right kind of man’. I’ll assume you do; if not, why wouldyou be here in the first place?As with my three books, I made the decision for the digital copies to be free –and I am looking into physical copies, so bear with me – but if you would liketo make a contribution, and make it easier for me to continue putting outcontent like this, then consider buying my books via Amazon or the RogueScholar Book Store (https://shop.aer.io/roguescholar/), or making adonation in any kind of cryptocurrency to my Coinbase wallet (username:raweggnationalist).Until we meet again, happy slonking!MAN'S WORLD124
