Beka is not sure what she was expecting as a result of walking into a snake monster but an Elf city would have been very low on a list of possibilities if someone had jumbled a lot of random words together into place-phrases and had her rank them. "Elf city" would probably have been under "spider void" and above "grape juice ocean". And yet here she is.
"There is that. Honestly it really doesn't seem likely it's the Enemy, if he could do this he could do worse and I don't see why he wouldn't. That doesn't mean we're safe, we're not, but it really does not seem very likely to me that his chosen agents are various species of singing girl."

Nod. Peka had a relatively safe thing to do to save her Cathei but both Rabka and Beka evidence that safety is not a requirement, it would not be the worst outcome for a landing Elf singing girl to have her baby okay whatever happened to her.
"So is Peka's baby growing up faster than the other babies or does Peka's world have longer years than Endorë?"
"They're all growing about the same speed, seems like, so I guess we must have longer years."
