One Michael Pendragon, in mockery,
Would lie all the time about Dockery.
When called on each lie
He'd whine and he'd cry:
"That wasn't a lie -- it was folkery!"

Again, too bad Michael Pendragon ruined what could have been an interesting idea with childish name-calling, lies and misrepresentations.

Well, that doesn't rob his folklore series of all value. None
of the stories may be true, but they can be accepted as a
true account of what his "people" (the Bandar-Log) used to
tell each other. Only Bandar-Log could be expected to
believe them as true tales about their subjects, but to the
rest of the world they're a treasure trove of information
on the almost extinct Bandar-Log culture that once
thrived here on aapc.
Interesting perspective.
