2 framed pitchfork Adjective Noun UNKNOWN 3501 Her face seemed tiny, framed by the voluminous hair, but cute, if not beautiful, and her frame, too, was small and thin. Pony took one in the throat with the pitchfork.
3 viewpoint hoofbeats Plural Noun UNKNOWN 3502 Avelyn considered the sight from two widely disparate viewpoints. A moment later came the thunder of hoofbeats to the east, many hoofbeats accompanied by the screams of those unfortunate goblins caught in front of the wild horse stampede.
4 dumb avalanche Adjective Noun UNKNOWN 3503 His words, the sincerity of his tone, struck her dumb. Deadfalls, pit traps, and jaw traps stopped many; in one place a dropping pile of logs triggered a small avalanche of loose snow and rock.
5 orders stomp Noun Gerund UNKNOWN 3504 On Quintall's orders, the four monks ventured out together to seethe city. His confidence mounted as a pair of giants stomped past, oblivious of him.
6 inhabitant stupidly Noun Adverb UNKNOWN 3505 Even the vivid, bright colors of the clothing of Entel's inhabitants struck the four as unusual. The ranger had to be satisfied with that; he and the refugees were in no position to take on a prisoner, especially one as fierce and stupidly bold as that powrie.
7 oar shawno Noun UNKNOWN 3506 Finally came the welcome sound of oars and the boat, all three safely aboard. The boy from End-o'-the-World, Shawno, had been of little help, but Elbryan remained convinced that it was indeed the Touel'alfar who had rescued that fleeing group from the monstrous hordes.
8 unfamiliar unblinking Adjective Verb UNKNOWN 3507 Even as he explored this unfamiliar use of hematite, he gave to Jill his understanding of the stories - and it was so easy! Elbryan sat bolt upright, unblinking.
9 companionship prophecy Noun UNKNOWN 3508 It wasn't that he craved human companionship; he continued to fear that thought greatly. "In prophecy?" Avelyn looked at him hard.
keenly Adverb UNKNOWN 3509 His sense of order was simply too strong, his sense of right and wrong too keenly developed.
union Plural UNKNOWN 3510 A physical union she could not abide - not with this man, not with Connor!
marker Noun UNKNOWN 3511 This moment, so many years in the waiting, was the marker of the end of that relationship with the girl, the beginning of the new and deeper relationship with the woman.
upstart Noun UNKNOWN 3512 He had not battled Tuntun in many weeks; he was determined now to give the upstart elf a bit of a surprise.
coins Noun UNKNOWN 3513 Tuntun could roll four coins at a time on each of her hands; she could juggle a dozen daggers, or even flaming brands, effortlessly.
overhand Noun UNKNOWN 3514 He started with an overhand, underhand parry sweep again, but instead of catching the staff with his left hand as it came swishing back to horizontal, he turned his right hand over once more.
partly Adverb UNKNOWN 3515 His success was partly gained by surprise.
rapidly Adverb UNKNOWN 3516 Chipmunk nodded so rapidly that he bit his tongue.

weakened Adjective UNKNOWN 3519 CHAPTER 42 Reputation Winter's icy grip weakened at last, more than three weeks after the vernal equinox.
10 apple rustle Noun UNKNOWN 3520 3509 The row of trees, short and wide apples, ran almost perfectly straight, then jumped back a dozen feet, up a ridge twice an elf's height, and continued on straight again from there. The diamond-shaped grove was eerily quiet, with no rustle of wind nor the call of any animal, of any night bird, to stir the still air.
11 explore dome Verb Noun UNKNOWN 3521 3510 What he came to understand from that viewpoint was a sense of self he had never before felt free to explore. He moved slowly and carefully about the field, building domes of snow the size of his two cupped hands.
12 flourish extinguish Verb UNKNOWN 3522 3511 He finished with a leaping flourish and landed pointing to the stripe. The fire on that particular dwarf was indeed extinguished as a huge booted foot crushed the diminutive creature flat.
13 earthquake sanctuary Noun UNKNOWN 3523 3512 Earthquakes and thunderstorms, swirling tornadoes, even exploding volcanoes, were more often than not natural events. The three trappers were at a loss; Brother Avelyn could think of no sanctuary closer than St.
14 etch mouse Verb Noun UNKNOWN 3524 3513 For Juraviel's anxiety was clearly etched on his fine features - how could it have been otherwise when he had been speaking to his protégé Elbryan about this very subject not a week's time past? So it became a game of cat and mouse, and Avelyn was the mouse.
15 occurrence slush Singular Noun UNKNOWN 3525 3514 Gradually, as he came to see the light in Jill's eyes every time he entered the Way - a more and more common occurrence - the proud young man began to understand and accept that her problem was within the mysteries of her past and not with him. A drenching rain fell all about the region, turning the last of the snow to slush and softening the ground.
16 predict invading Verb Adjective UNKNOWN 3526 3515 The reaction of Pettibwa and Graevis to the news of the marriage was not hard to predict. While their lives certainly became more comfortable, their nights no longer spent so closely huddled to a fire that their eyebrows singed, winter's relaxed grip offered the invading monsters even more mobility.
17 bonds advancing Noun Adjective UNKNOWN 3527 3516 Might the bonds of approaching matrimony be tightening?" "Hardly," Connor replied. "The folk of Landsdown are on the road south ahead of the advancing monsters," Juraviel explained.
18 virgin thanks Noun UNKNOWN 3528 3517 "She is fearful - virgins always are - but of course, my rights on that night are absolute. And to go with my thanks and the gratitude of all who survived the invasion." Paulson looked at Chipmunk, and the small man nodded nervously.
19 wench wedge Noun PastTense UNKNOWN 3529 3518 "You teasing little wench. He was in a sitting position, wedged in tightly against the hard trunk.
20 focused Adjective UNKNOWN 3519 It was not a difficult enchantment, actually; and one that powerful Avelyn could maintain with the focused sunstone for h very long time without severely taxing his energies for other magics.
21 carriage unsteady Noun Adjective UNKNOWN 3530 3520 It was a ceremony that had all of Palmaris talking; the women swooning, the men standing tall, feigning importance, wishing they were in the carriage in Connor Bildeborough's place as it made its winding way, through the streets. Summoning every ounce of his remaining strength, Elbryan managed to pull away from Pony, taking two unsteady steps toward Bradwarden, meaning to help with the door.
22 peasant gust Noun UNKNOWN 3531 3521 Any reservations that the nobleman's family had held toward the peasant orphan girl had been washed away when they met Jill, truly beautiful both inside and out. After the gust, the heat remained.
23 blond cracking Adjective Noun UNKNOWN 3532 3522 Jill shook her head, her short shock of blond hair bouncing about. He came forward in a rush, Tempest driving in hard and straight, striking hard; cracking through the black shell and diving into the monster's magma interior.
24 devour Verb UNKNOWN 3523 Not a sound came from about the beast as, clothing and all, the dactyl devoured the torn skin of Gothra.
25 scour Gerund UNKNOWN 3524 Lower went the demon, and slower, turning tight circles, sharp eyes scouring the terrain, keen ears tuning to every sound.
26 attendance serenity Noun UNKNOWN 3533 3525 It was bad enough that the carriage would roll through every part of the large city, bad enough that more than five hundred people would be in attendance at the church when she and Connor were wed, but the thought of what would come later, after the grand ball ... It was a cruel lie: the quiet, the serenity, the spring breeze.
27 suggestion jutting Plural Adjective UNKNOWN 3534 3526 Elbryan absorbed all their words, sifted through their suggestions. He noted a movement up above, a dark shape coming atop the jutting rock.
28 nightgown ringing Noun Adjective UNKNOWN 3535 3527 I will do as I please, when I please!" As if to accentuate his point, he reached over with one hand and tore down the side of Jill's nightgown, pulling it low enough to reveal one of her breasts. Elbryan pressed on, Tempest hitting so often that the ringing song never paused.
29 glassy crackling Adjective UNKNOWN 3536 3528 CHAPTER 18 The Test of Faith Hour after endless hour, day after endless day, the Windrunner glided lazily across the sparkling glassy surface of the South Mirianic. Pony's graphite defeated that maneuver, though, sent a crackling bolt of energy along the monster's inner thighs that left it swaying, legs widespread, as the woman worked her way out the back.
30 emptiness deafen Noun Verb UNKNOWN 3537 3529 Some said it was, the work of ghosts, or evil monsters of the deeper waters, but most rational, experienced sailors attributed it to fear and suspicion, to the long days of emptiness and the undeniable feeling that the sea would never end, that the ship would sail and sail until there was no more to eat and no more to drink. The dactyl's shriek echoed all through the tunnel maze of Aida, deafened the four friends, and made them reach for their ears.
31 intimacy somber Noun Adjective UNKNOWN C1 3538 3530 The issue of physical intimacy did not come up between them during those weeks, for both of them had found a more special intimacy, far more satisfying. Squat towers anchored every turn in the wall; narrow windows showed that the place was built for somber reflection and defense.
32 starboard wistful Noun Adjective UNKNOWN C1 3539 3531 "Whale to starboard!" the lookout cried a moment later. Of alb the places in the area, only Elbryan's private grove was more beautiful than the pine vale and the caribou moss, and none elicited more wistful memories from the young woman.
33 damnation trepidation Singular UNKNOWN C1 3540 3532 "Damnation," Avelyn sputtered, and he scrambled with all speed back to the shelter of the cave. His intrigue was fast shifting to trepidation now, as he got the distinct feeling that he had stumbled on to something potentially dangerous.
34 pedal sullen Noun Adjective UNKNOWN C1 3541 3533 The dwarves can pedal all day, while most men tire within the hour - or after a couple of hours, at most." Quintall nodded, his respect for the stoic, tireless enemy redoubled. "Soggy and sullen," she said aloud, and nodded, thinking that a fitting description of all her life.
35 minds scrutinize Noun Verb UNKNOWN C1 3542 3534 Suddenly, the archers had more on their minds than the woman in the water. Avelyn scrutinized the broach carefully.
36 favorite Noun A2 3535 Master Jojonah talked constantly, though he said nothing of interest - slight remarks about the weather, a storm that had hit twenty years before, the passing of his favorite baker in the town of St.-Mere-Abelle, a surprisingly off-color remark about the man's "lusty" wife.
37 cook Noun A2 3536 True to his words, Bradwarden allowed Elbryan to start a fire and cook his venison, while the centaur ate his portion, nearly a quarter of the deer, raw.

40 humor Noun B1 3539 He came to know aspects of Dansally that his companions would never think to look former witty sense of humor, tenderness, and her regrettable resignation for her station in life.
41 excited Adjective B1 3540 Tuntun's normally melodic voice turned squeaky whenever she got excited, and several of the others cringed and some even put their hands over their sensitive, pointed ears.
42 pretend Verb B1 3541 Tuntun pretended not to notice.
43 character Noun B1 3542 Tuntun was wrong, Juraviel knew without any doubt at all; this one had character.

51 discuss Verb B1 3550 "We have much to discuss," the monk said.
52 achieve Verb B1 3551 The greatest gift of the elves was this harmony the man had achieved, this joining of two philosophies, of two ways of looking at the world, of two ways to do battle.
53 complex Adjective B1 3552 To their dismay, this tunnel complex proved no less a maze than the higher passageways, and most of these corridors seemed to be leading further down and not up.
54 attach Verb B1 3553 As if some wire were attached to its back, the zombie stood suddenly, moving straight up without use of its hands, without bending its legs.

61 orb Noun UNKNOWN 3560 Shining, too, were the demon's eyes, pools of liquid black at most times, but shifting to fiery red orbs, living flames, when the demon was agitated, a glow of absolute hatred.

78 wolf Noun UNKNOWN 3577 Somewhere in the distance a wolf howled, and another took up the song, and for Elbryan, the music was sweeter now than ever before, than even in those years he had spent in the enchanted elven forest.
79 cargo expedition Noun Singular UNKNOWN 3543 3578 He did not wake up until long after the dawn, his precious cargo intact in his pack. This would be the last time he remained behind when the hunters went off on the season's last and most important expedition.
80 tarry comer Verb Noun UNKNOWN 3544 3579 Avelyn blanched, so did Thagraine and Pellimar, but Quintall only let out a low growl and tarried his gaze back in the direction of the distant powrie ship. Elbryan moved up to the comer of the next house, smiling for his cleverness, and peered around.
81 tail male Verb Noun UNKNOWN 3545 3580 But the powries tailed her; the lookout called down repeatedly, his tone growing thick with frustration and fear, that the barrelboat was keeping pace, was even beginning to close a bit. One time Elbryan had made the mistake of catching Jilseponie without his male companions nearby, and of tugging too hard on her yellow mane to prove the point of his capture.

84 ensue involuntarily Verb Adverb UNKNOWN 3552 3583 A long moment of silence ensued, all five - the three humans, Juraviel, and Tuntun - feeling the weight of confirmation.

85 threatened reflexively Verb Adverb UNKNOWN 3553 3584 That the Order should be threatened by the piety of a young monk was something Master Jojonah could not come to terms with. She reflexively cocked a fist, and Elbryan wisely jumped back.
86 plea excite Singular Verb UNKNOWN 3554 3585 "We're too far out," he said to his captain, his plea sounding as a whine. Finally, Chipmunk caught up to his friend, but he was too excited to explain in words.
87 lagoon rainbow Noun UNKNOWN 3555 3586 So they circled, spotting one promising lagoon, and then sailed out to deeper waters for the longest five days of the trip, particularly for Avelyn and Thagraine.

88 supplies perceptible Noun Adjective UNKNOWN 3556 3587 Finally, he and Thagraine, carrying their supplies, slipped down the rope off the side of the Windrunner into the boat, Pimaninicuit looming large before them. It floated through-the chill air, barely perceptible.
89 withstand dell Noun UNKNOWN 3557 3588 On board Quintall launched right away into lies about the dangers to the foolish seaman, about how the monks, and the monks alone, were trained to withstand the fury of the showers. Juraviel let him lead often and corrected him whenever he went wrong - which was not often any longer - and soon the pair came into the low dell called Caer'alfar: Elvenhome.
90 accusation exhilarating Singular Adjective UNKNOWN 3558 3589 "Do you think that you belong in Dundalis?" the man asked bluntly, again the words sounding like an accusation, or a threat. It was loud and rushing, exhilarating.
91 purplish spirituality Adjective Noun UNKNOWN 3559 3590 The hundreds of purplish rings converged in the middle of the room. There is more to spirituality than piety, my friend.
92 gaping theirs Adjective Noun UNKNOWN 3560 3591 Avelyn meant to turn him over, but he could not find his breath when he looked at the fatal wound, a gaping hole smashed right through Thagraine's skull, brain matter splattered all about. No, it was his experience and Pony's - theirs alone.
93 splatter shapely Verb Adverb UNKNOWN 3561 3592 One fireball hit against the village's east wall, splattering the two men standing nearby with burning pitch. She was in her mid-teens, but had the shapely body of a woman five years older.
94 remnant starkness Noun UNKNOWN 3562 3593 Many showed no magical power at all, and Avelyn soon realized that these were the remnants of previous showers, brought up to the surface by the battering of the storm. The starkness of the scene from this vantage point, in this mounting light, amazed the companions.
95 dramatic assessment Adjective Noun B2 UNKNOWN 3563 3594 Only then did Avelyn take the time to note that dramatic change that had come over Pimaninicuit. "How many thousands must we defeat even to reach its black rocky base?" Elbryan shook his head determinedly, somehow sure his companion's assessment was not correct.
96 unyielding elk Adjective Noun UNKNOWN 3564 3595 Gofflaw growled at her, but under Jill's unyielding glare, he replaced his sword in its sheath. The hunters would return with carcasses - elk, caribou, or white-tailed deer - slung on shoulder poles, and it seemed to the watching pair as if this hunt had been successful indeed!
97 retain disintegrate Noun Verb UNKNOWN 3565 3596 But his orders concerning Pimaninicuit had been explicit and unyielding: only those stones treated to retain their magic could be brought from the island. Their patience fast disintegrated; they leaped out together, running fast down the steeper slope, picking their angle to intercept the returning troop.
98 store southeast Verb Adjective UNKNOWN 3566 3597 Avelyn could not discern the purpose of the magic, except to note that there was a tremendous amount of energy stored within those crystals. "The sun is in the southeast," Elbryan reminded Pony, squaring his shoulders as he took command of the situation.
99 grumbling northeast Adjective UNKNOWN 3567 3598 Aside from Paulson's typical grumbling, he caught no direction to their conversation. "The hunters approach from the northeast, so all we have to do is keep the sun just behind our right shoulders." It seemed logical enough to Pony, so she.
100 emerald buck Noun UNKNOWN 3568 3599 At the first town he entered, he happened upon a caravan of several merchant wagons, and there he sold the common emerald, giving him all the funds he would need for a long, long time. He screamed out and tried to buck, the force and dive ahead, arm extended, Tempest leading.
101 remorse stock Noun UNKNOWN 3569 3600 But to kill without remorse? Expressions ran from excitement to awkward fear to blank amazement as the villagers took stock of the kills, especially the last carcass on the shoulder poles, a smallish humanoid form.

significance Noun UNKNOWN 3598 "You do not even understand the significance," Tuntun replied distastefully.
unending Verb UNKNOWN 3599 Even Juraviel couldn't suppress a chuckle at his elven companion's unending games.
jag Verb UNKNOWN 3600 So many times he thought he would collide with jags of stone only to watch them rush under him at the last possible second.
