A Study of the Chaldean Roots in the Ancient Cornish Language: With Observations on the Early Tin Trade in West Cornwall from the experience and John Watson wrote
The Devil's Foot. Make of that what you will.
Notes: Dear k_e_p (language escapes) my working title for this story was
Some Pterosaurs Were Quadrupeds, or This Title Is Unrelated to the Story But was a Cool Fact so I Used it as a Placeholder and I tried very valiantly to work dinosaurs (even though yes, Pterosaurs are NOT dinosaurs) into the story, but I failed. It's my one regret. Otherwise, I thoroughly enjoyed writing this. An enormous please and thank you to my betas. They're the reason this is as good as it is.
