The Color of Magic Close to the Edge / Chapter 15 Summary

How It All Goes Down

  • Twoflower is fascinated by the astrolabe and all the worlds it contains.
  • Meanwhile, Rincewind stares distrustfully at the two suits hanging in the room—there's a hint of premonition about them that he doesn't like.
  • Twoflower sees the suits and an idea comes to his mind, one Rincewind flatly refuses to participate in.
  • Their discussion is interrupted by two chelonauts entering the room.
  • Employing no small amount of foul play, Rincewind and Twoflower knock the two men out.
  • Twoflower suggests they suit up, and Rincewind agrees. He just knew it was going to happen anyway.
