Frogspawn Swamp I worked hard all my lifetime

Towhee stared at Ceridwen’s muddy face as she approached, looking utterly bewildered. She probably sounded it too. The filth made it difficult to read her lips, though it didn’t take much imagination to know what she must be asking.

And, she went on on the same breath, the only thing I know about infinity is that my loathing for snakes is definitely infinite.
