What is "bazas"

Usage examples of "bazas".

But the young prince soon paused again, with a technical question for his old adviser, one for which old Bazas, as usual, had a ready answer.

Old Bazas, who had not yet been able to hear the noise, only grunted noncommittally.

Even Bazas could hear the racket now, and in this he had been quicker-witted than his young Prince.

Looking again in that direction, Stephen saw old Bazas, Dragonslicer still in his right hand, slumping to the floor.

Turning with alarm, gazing toward the now-unguarded doorway, he beheld Bazas standing in that opening with Dragonslicer in hand.

Stephen himself was uninjured by the explosion-armed as he was now, no weapon had the power to hurt him-but he could see at once how fragments of the Sword of Heroes had torn the body of Bazas into bloody rags, dropped the old man in his tracks.

Only Shieldbreaker could have saved him, must be saving him even now, from the same awful madness which had afflicted Bazas, almost within arm's length.

This insight, along with the undoubted presence of demons in the palace, and the fact that Bazas in his madness had shouted the Dark King's name, strongly indicated that this latest attack, like that two years ago, must be led by the terrible Vilkata.

But before setting foot out of the Sword-chamber the young Prince paused, fascinated against his will, to take one more horrified look at Bazas.

Princess Kristin's mighty uncle, as helpless in the Mindsword's grip as the humblest of servants, having now in great concern for his Master's welfare followed him downstairs, caught up with the Dark King in the Sword-chamber, discovered in his turn the body of Bazas, recognized the man, and expressed grief over the loss.

Karel murmured something to the effect that it was to be hoped that Bazas before dying had also seen the light, the glorious truth about Vilkata.
