Quotes by C.A.A. Allen (?)

“A slender man with a belette on his shoulder approached the shop. Aw man, I wanted a belette, also called a sniffer. Some people called them common weasels, but I knew better. Belettes could sniff out any harm that could ruin a quester’s day in the Maze—traps, curses, spells, and the presence of evil and magic were just a few of the things a well-trained belette could warn of.”
― C.A.A. Allen, The Cave Maze

“oxymel, a honey and vinegar drink used for the treatment of fever, pain, or whatever else the peddler thinks they need to say to sell the swill. Now that was just sad.”

“She started dooking—a chuckling bark—licked my hand, and then jumped down to explore the shop.”
