Keli groaned again, hoping the kender's blood wouldn't
splatter all over him. Yet, though he paled, Tigo didn't
reply. Staag kicked the kender.

perspective, turns funny. Keli felt he was in one of those
odd turns now: the kender winked.

the spirit of helpful affability. "Some are very old - I've
been collecting them for years, you know. It's kind of a
hobby of mine. I like the drawings, especially the things the
mappers sketch when they don't know who or what lives in
the land. And I like the little legends and poems in the
borders of the larger ones. That one, the one drawn on hide,
is my oldest and the one I think I like the best
