And no, they are nowhere near as cold as the Twelve Daggers.
Pink had grown a layer of fur, Blue had some kind of mucus thing going on, and Violet was doing something to make herself [Feverish], but all of them radiated the same cold that I myself was feeling, if to a lesser degree.
In any event, there are very few ogres left in the Ogre's Teeth, or there were when I passed through them. I also saw only traces of the Aries Ram, a large beast that was used as a sheep by both the ogres and the cyclopses.
Crap.
I took cover behind a boulder. Not that I'd seen anything; I'd come over the crest between two peaks, and seen what had once been a woodland.
The remaining trees were in thickets; most were shattered or on the ground. From their coloration and decay, it had been several months.
Okay, I've reached an unpopular decision. No more placeholder chapters. I'm just going to over-write as needed, and take my lumps if the company beats me over the head with the contract.
Endcap pending with next update.
