We have a room devoted to the avatars in the monastery. People venture here from all over to see the sacred objects — the dolls — that once carried spirits from one body to another.

Boomtown Guide For The Perplexed
Michael Reilly

Poor Edna ... nowadays she doesn’t hear anything. Read More...
Snake Oil Rights Ken Poyner I need to get to wherever this place is. I am the new novelty, straight from the complicated cities and now out in the hinterlands. Even people who come in from thirty miles out are seeing progress these days. No matter how badly they want to do it, yokels cannot stay yokels. If they try, their own children abandon them.
