Abstract
Doron Noon is an extraordinary changeling who sells insults and spins epic tales. Ethan Knight Errant, former champion of Derring Wit, is hired to take her back to the hellish Undergloom of the trolls. She accepts willingly and the knight is gobsmacked, but Doron has her own secret quest. Their journey is fraught with warty ogres, three-headed fire-breathers, and thrown vegetables. Doron writes odes to them all. Ethan parleys with the Troll King in the Undergloom, but when their first quest ends in a way no one expected, the real intrigue begins.
