His comments are somewhere in the recent posts. When they skirt a swamp, the narrator says he can feel a two tusked green monster lurking for him, with tusks as big as his wrists. It comes up again later. At first I was sure he was talking about Babbie, but that didn't pan out with my later theories. The dripping teeth of Triskele, who shows up at the end of Return to the Whorl made gave me the association, but "friend" does tend to negate its scary qualities. Thanks. Marc Aramini ---
