Sparx Incarnation: Mark of the Green Dragon (Sparx Series I book 1)
“The trip to the Stout town of Proudfoot would be easier on Paplov that way. He could be stubborn about getting his hiking in, but it had been raining straight for two days. Given Webfooters’ sorry record for maintaining the Mire Trail, that time of year blue-tails were the preferred mode of transportation into and out of town for anyone sensible, especially during wet spells. Year by year, the corduroy portions of the beaten track slowly unfurled, but still more than half lay undeveloped.
W...hile packing arrows in the shed with Paplov, I caught sight of one Mer Andulus strolling up the road to our hut. He wore the same tans, leathers and floppy hat as that night at the Flipside. Both hands gripped the worn, leather straps of his backpack as if they were suspenders. The old prospector chewed his whalebone pipe as he walked, and sent a thin stream of smoke trailing over one shoulder and up into the fresh morning air.
“Just a sec,” I said to Paplov, and ran out to meet Mer at the twig gate to our yard.MoreLess
