“He uncoiled a length of fine leather tubing from his waist and tossed it down to Hessler, leaving the end attached to his waist. “Remember, one sharp tug means that you must feed me more tubing and shake the line, as it may have gotten caught, while two tugs means that I am stuck and need you to pull me back.” “How many tugs means that we should trigger the explosion?” Tern asked.
