3 stampede moist Noun Adjective UNKNOWN 3102 The stampede came to a skidding halt, the wild horses accepting riders, villagers. He came out of the house, eyes still moist with tears, his mother's body in his arms.
4 haven revenge Noun UNKNOWN 3103 Eventually, if they cannot find a haven, they will be killed, one at a time, perhaps, as was poor Cric, or perhaps the goblins will discover their camp in the night and slaughter them all. Despite very real fears, Elbryan wanted revenge.
5 unmistakable transfer Adjective Verb UNKNOWN B2 3104 If the tip of its blade was set upon the ground, the end of its balled hilt would not have reached Elbryan's waist, and the width of the blade was no more than the distance between the knuckle and first joint of Elbryan's smallest finger, but there was an unmistakable solidity and strength to the weapon, an aura of power. CHAPTER 27 The Fat Prophet's Warning News that she would soon be transferred to Pireth Vanguard far to the north, did little to change Jill's sullen mood.
sparks Noun UNKNOWN 3105 The mighty elvish weapon scored hit after hit, sparks flying as it banged hard against metal armor.

8 humanlike resourceful Noun Adjective UNKNOWN 3131 3107 The demon spread wide its black wings and reached back with one humanlike arm, claws extended toward the flowing lava, grabbing the power and channeling it. He remembered Mather at the start of the legendary ranger's career, a bumbling boy no more adept and probably not even as resourceful as this Elbryan.
9 devastating conclusion Verb Noun UNKNOWN 3132 3108 Every part of the demon was a weapon, devastating and deadly. And to the young man who had somehow survived a goblin raid, such a conclusion meant it could only be one thing.

13 strap soothing PastTense Adjective UNKNOWN 3136 3112 He retrieved his belt and dagger, which he had reverently placed right near his bed, and Elbryan felt powerful as he ceremoniously strapped the weapon about his waist. Soothing sounds, and that made defiant Elbryan panic even more.
14 birthday pirouette Noun Singular UNKNOWN 3137 3113 Next spring would bring his thirteenth birthday, the passage from childhood in the hardy land that was the northern wilderness.

17 muffle navigate Noun Verb UNKNOWN 3140 3116 Elbryan tried to muffle his snicker; the girl hated that nickname, Jilly, though nearly everyone in town called her that. Elbryan still could not navigate this area, but he was gaining some understanding.
18 nickname petty Noun Adjective UNKNOWN 3141 3117 He screwed up his face, the ridiculous nickname sounding foolish in his ears. But with no time for such petty problems, the ranger had dismissed the incident.

24 rival Adjective UNKNOWN 3123 By the third year, Master Siherton also became invaluable as a mediator between the two rivals from the class of God's Year 816, coaxing Quintall into easing up on his jealousy of Avelyn.
25 astonish Verb UNKNOWN 3124 And here before Jojonah's astonished eyes was a young novice, a man of only twenty winters, performing feats that would tax the Father Abbot of St.- Mere-Abelle to the very limits of his powers!
