robinauts"...clothes stained with his own blood from an encounter with a hodag."
A hodag is a "fearsome critter," an apocryphal tall tale from Appalachian lumberjacks in the early 1800s. Specifically, the hodag was from Wisconsin, and was described as having "the head of a frog, the grinning face of a giant elephant, thick short legs set off by huge claws, the back of a dinosaur, and a long tail with spears at the end."
"He deposited a chunk of apophyllite crystal in the ground, then tapped it with his hazel wand."
Apophyllite helps you recognize truth and "open the third eye." Hazel helps you understand the truth and aids in navigation.
"'They’re fiends, malevolent sprites. The yellow one is Hobbididance, it’s an idiot. The green is Mahu, it steals stuff. The blue is Flibbertigibbet, and it whines all the time.'"
These are sprites from the traditional English morris dance. They're mentioned in King Lear. There are five in total.
