Chapter Fourteen
The Art Centre
“Laying flowers at a statue’s feet is woman’s work. A man’s is building them.”—Loud Mouth
The Art Centre kept itself separate from the city, allowing the four-legged creatures to roam, sniff, and roll in the grass, exposing their stomachs for a good rub. The four-legged creatures were loved and sometimes worshipped, making the Foreigners a joke to most in the city, including James the Strong.
He, like many in the city, celebrated everything with the burning of a four-legged creature followed by the peeling of flesh to eat and skins to decorate walls with.
The Foreigners preferred paint.
James the Strong loved the skins of the four-legged creatures so much he even had a pouch with long fluffy hair for his family member.
Not something Aggie liked to pon
