David Eddings Quote

I'd really like to go with you, Agachak. Truly I would...but I just can't.I don't understand. Why not?I'm not allowed to leave home. My mother'd punish me something awful if I did...But you're the king.That doesn't change a thing. I still do what mother says. She tells everybody that I'm the best boy ever when it comes to that.Agachak resisted a powerful urge to change this half-wit into a toad or perhaps a jellyfish.
