Franny Billingsley Quote

Excellent fistibus, said Eldric, but he wasn't done with my hand. He inspected my left palm, the pucker of scars. There's no fortune to be read in that palm, I said, but of course he wanted to know about it; of course he'd been dying to ask since we first met. Do you want the version of the story in which I'm a hero, or do you want the true version?
