Lament Quote by Zoraida Córdova
““My grandma told me you guys were all extinct.” The duende makes a sour face. He keeps that long, craggy finger pointed in my direction. “Most of my kind was sent here by El Terroz, Lord of the Earth and its Treasures. He is our father and protector. I am charged with passage across the Luxaria, or as common witches call it—Lover’s Lament.” “Lover’s Lament?” I look at the hole in my shoe. “Why do they call it that?” Oros””
