Dogear
Book-eating Horc
Dogear takes over a bookshop on the road to Battleon and eats the stock. He tells the Hero that one book tastes like beef jerky, even as it begs the Hero for help. After the real bookseller is freed and Dogear is defeated, Maya gives the Hero what remains of the book, a Lore Grimoire that can seek out a hero of its own.
