Sawtooth Spire aufgeregt

She couldn't hold back the snort of laughter when she imagined Mahler trying to hold back a rock slide. What a romantic way to commit suicide. You'll be remembered as the noblest fool who ever lived, she told him, righting herself and finally seizing the bird, which she immediately hoarded and began to devour. A more modest or polite woman might've offered it back but Wylla had no qualms with scarfing down food right in front of Mahler without any regard for cleanliness or table manners. He wanted her to eat, didn't he, so he could watch the show.

He asked about names and Wylla swallowed her mouthful of bird before responding. Yup. Was thinking of naming them Rot, Mould, Lumpy and Bumpy. What do you think? She didn't even know where Tiercel's name came from, so she was hardly prepared to name these kids. She was kind of counting on Mahler for that one.
