Rick Riordan Quote

I lifted my wand, hoping she would see this as a dramatic move, not a threat. Why once, in my bunker at Charing Cross Station, I stalked thedeadly prey known as Jelly Babies.Neith’s eyes widened. They are dangerous?Horrible, I agreed. Oh, they seem small alone, but they always appear in great numbers. Sticky, fattening—quite deadly. There I was, alonewith only two quid and a Tube pass, beset by Jelly Babies, when…Ah, but never mind. When the Jelly Babies come for you…you will find out onyour own.She lowered her bow. Tell me. I must know how to hunt Jelly Babies.I looked at Walt gravely. How many months have I trained you, Walt?Seven, he said. Almost eight.And have I ever deemed you worthy of hunting Jelly Babies with me?Uh…no.
