Does anyone know what this symbol means?
[It's drawn rather slowly, as if Vimes is somewhat reluctant to put it on another surface.]
I've seen it drawn on the walls lately, but I can't seem to remember what it means. It's dwarfish mine sign, I know that much. I know the long dark, the following dark, the opening dark... but this one's a mystery. Though I know most of you don't even know dwarfs in the same place, I figure it's worth a shot.
[There is a longer pause, this time, but he decides to ask anyway. No one should remember that's still here besides Juliet, anyway.]
Oh yeah. One more thing. Anyone know where any lilac trees grow?
