Across space they came,
Seeking this wet, blue planet,
Afraid of water

A Dwarf's Life -- In Brief (Episode 3)
To Gromdahl's dismay, before he had time to react, before he really even had time to fully realize what was happening, the vines had already wrapped around the cart's axles and had begun to tighten around Bessie's ankles as well. The goat tried to bolt, tried to escape from the creepers’ infernal grasp, but she was held fast to the spot and could only bleat in terror. Gromdahl released his grip on the crank and drew his axe from his belt with a bellow.

If You Love Me, You'll Do It
I met Jason when I was five years old. I could say that I loved him from the moment I saw him. He was so handsome to me and I felt in awe by his presence. When they introduced him as the new kid in school, I wanted to be his friend right away. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember his smile and how he didn't seem shy. He appeared confident and ready to learn. I waved at him and said "hello," before anyone else could even say a word. He sat next to me, and I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He looked so happy as he said, "Yes!"
