“Ew can't do that,”
Rocknipples replies, his voice thick with sadness.
“Of course we can,”
the Guide insists, “We're from the Peacock Court, we can do
anything. Just as soon as we finish this inspection, its back to
your bridge you go.”
“Really?” the troll
asks excitedly, “Av they rebuilt it?”
“It collapsed?” the
Guide asks.
“They tore it down!”
“Why would they do
that, I wonder?” Raven inquires.
“Well they av to,”
Stonedildo tells them, “It's part of the conscriptshun.”
“I'm sorry,” Raven
responds, “I don't understand.”
“It's so we'll do as
we're told. They keep the foundations as, wot did they call it,
inshoe'erance. If we don't do as we're told they say they'll smash
em to tiny pieces.”
