Friar Hugo, old friend, brace yourself. I am the bearer of tragic news! Alarm spread across Hugo's pudgy features. Tell me, Jess. What dreadful thing has happened?

Step aside? I step aside for nobeast, whether it be a hallowed hedgehog, an officious otter, a seasoned squirrel, a mutterin' mole or a befuddled badger!
