    J.R.R. Tolkien
    “All that is gold does not glitter,
    Not all those who wander are lost;
    The old that is strong does not wither,
    Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

    From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
    A light from the shadows shall spring;
    Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
    The crownless again shall be king.”
    ― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

    “They pulled apart when Keefe shouted, "YOU GUYS HAVE TO SEE THIS!"
    They ran to the main room and found Keefe standing under the skylight, holding up Mr. Snuggles like it was a baby lion about to be made king. The sparkly red dragon twinkled almost as much as Keefe's eyes as he said, "I went in to check on our boy and found him cuddling with THIS!"
    "Isn't that the same dragon Fitz brought to your house that one time?" Dex asked Sophie.
    "WHAT?" Keefe shouted. "YOU KNEW AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ME?!"
    "Mr. Snuggles wasn't my secret to share," Sophie said.
    "IT'S NAME IS MR. SNUGGLES?! That is... I can't even..." Keefe ran back to Fitz's room shouting, "ARE YOU MISSING YOUR SNUGGLE BUDDY?!"
    "Fitz is going to die of embarrassment, you know that, right?" Biana asked.”
