There may be many things that a 17-year-old runaway might face in life (and I know of some of them, having been there myself), but giant spectral escargots? Oh, my, He certainly must loathe poor wee Cally!
On t'other hand, one **does** trust that bad things come in threes...
Well, sufficeth to say that oversized escargot are fairly common in the marginalia of medieval manuscripts, and I'd wondered how Cally would fare. To her credit, she does what anyone with half a brain would do.
I don't know which is more daunting, finding a vat of brine large enough for prepping it before cooking, or amassing the vast amounts of garlic and butter with which to serve it.

My point exactly.
yea and verily, Milady, one doth hope to hear of an appropriate recipe. ^_^
