"Yes, of course." I kept my eyes down as I tugged on my other sock and boot, too embarrassed to look her in the eye. "It's every girl's dream to be rescued from someone's pet pig."
The Kingkiller Chronicle, #2.6, this is labeled. A Fae lad (150 years old, I think) lives in a human villages, trading with the children for secrets and favors, and apparently being tutored by a guy at the Inn. I enjoyed it very much.
The Kingkiller Chronicle, #2.5.
A charming tale about Auri, who lives in the Underthing. I am so glad I got to read this story, the author states that he wasn't going to publish it as he thought no one would read it. I love the eight pages of soap making!!
