There is always that one heretic

 Outside the door Taggart paused to let his eyes adjust to the darkness. It was true that Apaches rarely attacked by night, or they believed the soul of a warrior killed in darkness must wander forever, lost in the vast emptiness of a night without stars. But Swante Taggart was not inclined to be killed by the one Apache who might be willing to take a chance.
