How does coffee with the King go horribly, horribly wrong, and other musings from the Miller's daughter, including listing names that resemble a shopping list. Join Fox and Sparrow as they get to the root of this Kingdom’s financial problems- which can apparently be saved by a girl with a knack for dealing with strange, small men and 3 rooms full of gold. Greedy Kings, the power of names (and lack of), and a caffeine problem all end in a fantastic story!
