#grrrrrr chewing on this BOOK IT'S SO FUN

[deermouth]

Naming in in Riddley Walker is soooo so good I love that the sort of trance priest dynastic figure is called the Ardship of Cambry which is obviously a corrupted "Archbishop of Canterbury" and ALSO comes from "hardship" due to the congenital defects considered necessary for the existence of these priests (who, in their trances are said to spout "vantsit theary" because they are descended from the "Puter Leat"), and I love Riddley's conception of the ancient name of Canterbury: "It has a zanting in it like a tall man dantsing and time back there ben foun there girt big music pipes as big as fents poals peopl said."
