Spelling Bee

In Xanth there are all kinds of creatures.   Some are very helpful to humans. One of the very useful creatures us a "Spelling Bee".   BUT. . . . you have to know just how to get them to help you.

Prince Dor does not like school work. He really hates writing.  He had an assignment to do, but wanted to go "goof off".  So he got a "Spelling Bee" to help him write his essay.  You have to be very careful when asking about spelling a word, because as you know lots of words "sound" alike.  The "Spelling Bee" that Dor go to help him happened to be a perverse one. This is how his essay turned out!
