Descriptive Text

Jameld had often told me that his people made it their practice to domesticate the great stag beetles, larger than a horse, which make their home in the forests of Sithicus. Despite my high opinion of his honesty I was never really able to believe that such a thing was possible; the intelligence of a beetle of the ordinary sort is so limited that training one seemed to me to be the epitome of an exercise in futility. On my recent visit, however, Jameld showed me his own mount--by his lights, a true beauty, which he calls "Eothacha" ("Dawnchaser"). Having seen him put it through its paces, I am forced to concede that one can, in fact, train a giant stag beetle to serve as a mount.

I am, of course, left with the far more pressing question of why anyone would want to do such a thing.

-Rudolph van Richten, private correspondence with Laurie Weathermay-Foxgrove[6]
