The basic principle of Soliciting is this ' you call up whatever you can boss around. Lickspittle imps angling for promotion, Painsmiths, semi-sentient stuff like organs, tentacles, noxious mists, animals sometimes, Dwynes, Styxpigs, Wolfcopters¦ anything small, anything starved of attention and desperate for an innings in a coat of meat.

The delivery troll scratched one of his nasal boils. 'Is it a present?' 'A present? A present? What is this game we're playing now? Did I ask you to start guessing?' 'A new mug?'
