Floods 5 (2007)
“Mordonna was the elder of King Quatorze’s two daughters and therefore the top princess in the whole country. She was also the only one of his two daughters who did not have very hairy nostrils, green skin with red bits and have her feet shod at the blacksmiths.
Nerlin was not a prince.27 He was a humble lavatory cleaner, one of the dirt people who lived in the drains beneath the city.28 When the two lovers had fled, the king had sent his most trusted and evil spy, the Hearse Whisperer, after th...em with instructions to kill everyone except Mordonna, who was to be brought back to Transylvania Waters. Incredibly, the escapees managed to give the Hearse Whisperer the slip and live quietly with their seven children in a quiet suburban street called Acacia Avenue. The Hearse Whisperer searched everywhere, but because witches and wizards are very superstitious and one of the things they fear more than anything else are acacias – though no one knows why – the Hearse Whisperer kept well away from any roads, streets, lanes and avenues called Acacia.MoreLess
