Another great chapter with the word cleverly woven in. And I like the battle axes! (Although I don't recognize any of them!)

I'm laughing imagining how tiny these battle axes would actually be....if they were actual, that is. I missed the last couple of entries but just got caught up. And I'm really impressed with that massive gate - great job on the woodgrain and the stones!

That is so cool- you obviously put so much work & depth into it. Keep it up.

This cant be cant be cant be the LAST battle. I know you will find a way out of this Shrew Kahn.

Those battle axes would come in handy in my kitchen. Just think of how fast we could chop broccoli!
