These Liliputians are a prickly bunch. The ghouly guy ought to keep Kurjak busy while they mount up for an assault on his cave of no return.
"Naked as a worm"- hadn't heard that expression before. I've heard of "naked as a jaybird". Hmmm, worm.... jaybird.... now I know where the expression "The early bird gets the worm" comes from ;)
Finally, here comes the cavalry!
In fact, "naked as a jaybird" would be a better idiomatic English translation, so I'll make that alteration. This made me wonder where that idiom came from. Apparently it was originally "naked as a fledgeling," sometimes appended with "fledgeling robin" or "fledgeling jaybird," and over time the "fledgeling" part was dropped. "Naked as a fledgeling" makes more sense, if you've ever seen newly hatched birds.
I'd like to book a 5 day Air BnB stay at Vyšehrad, wow! I love that exterior establishing shot of the fortress to open pg. 81.
Attack of the Minute Men!
