The Adventures of Dod

"I thought we had an agreement!  Didn't you sign with your knife?" 

 "Then good!  Their anger will serve me well!"

"I'd imagine all sorts of foolish articles will post about me--how I hate noble billies. They'll claim the most absurd things..." 

 "WE'RE TAKING RAUL DOWN!"

 "You can't tell a soul....I was--uh--someplace I shouldn't have been, and I may have heard--"

 "...how many trees need to fall before it's not just the wind?"

"Bah! I think you're being humble....You'd make a great Chief Noble Tredder of Green."

 "Yes, that's very true--The Dread--my goodness, I hate thinking of The Dread."

"I can't imagine how they escaped without us noticing. The windows remained closed. We had them trapped."

"I can assure you, nobody has stepped foot in your quarters since my guards discovered the door had been breached..."

"...don't be quick to judge.  Beneath every wiggling glove is a hand, and it's behind the mask where the true man lies.  He has his good reasons, I'm sure: We know Dod." 

 "Show them you're a Chantolli, my boy!  Show them!"

"I'm sorry, Ingrid.  As a mayler, I think I'm more needed on that untamed horse." 

 "You really don't have to do this...if you fall and get hurt, we'll all be in trouble--eyeball deep."

"We need another quick mind around here these days--tough times with the likes of Dreaderious and his kind lurking about."

"He's tilted his glossy eyes at the pile of droppings and missed the whole team of mules pulling the cart." 

"Oh, it shouldn't be that hard.  There's always something for getting something else." 

"How can Bly get wealthy on gadgets like this?  They're way too hard to use--too many instructions."

"I thought I told you to run, boy!  Apparently my legs work just fine."

 "It's the best in all of us, the grand dream, the lingering hope of what my family trusts can one day become everyone's inheritance."
