===Manfred Enters Amber===

After two days with the Chaos army, Manfred takes time off -- citing needing to deal with his family.  Still in his demon form, he flies to the beach near the top of the magical stairs leading down into Rebma, the Faiella-bionin.  He then lays down for a suntan.  Virgil's heart is nearly broken back down in Rebma as Manfred has disappeared, and leaps when he sees Manfred on the beach.  They go up the long staircase into the city of Amber together, and stay at the Rebman embassy. 

After dinner, he gets a trump call from Brand.  Brand has no immediate issue, but they chat about their plans for everything.  Brand explains that he wants to wipe out the old Pattern which will sweep clean most of the existing Shadows, and create a new one, asking for Manfred's help in defending him against the hordes of Chaos as he creates a new one.  Manfred says that he likes the idea of reform, but wants to do something about the Courts of Chaos as well.  He also says that he is attached to his own (alternate) Earth, to which Brand responds that that shadow is going to be hedged as the protected center of his new order.
