From Book Three, Bad Ass Patrick:
Caróg, the name of the walking stick my dad gave me for my birthday.
“I reverently reached out and grasped the walking stick in my hands, sort of expecting some magical discharge as I did, but only felt the residual warmth of my father’s hands. He watched my face expectantly, looking for some sign of approval.”
