Lost Creek Hollow wait, what? did you say 'eat people?' are you a cannibal, caleb?

excuse you, deshyr. that's the supreme and most handsome brown blob with nubs for feet, to you! the audacity of elder siblings... at least he was getting some attention, though. better yet, he was getting attention that he didn't have to share with his lame-o siblings. lumpy and the silver nuggets could rest unaware beneath the warmth of their mother while aengus ventured out on his own. if he had the ability to speak, he would have recounted his tales with far too many exaggerations attached.

the sound of a voice caused the boy to turn his eyes toward a figure he'd not noticed yet. a squeak fell from his lips and the rotund little monster inched toward the figure, seeking the warmth that they would provide. the world was still pretty cold, after all, and he was not yet big enough to regulate his heat so that he did not shiver when he was on his own.
