In time, Trippet and Trivia became mother and father, having bundles and bundles of Treasure Troll babies. There were always one or two tots cradled in Trivia’s arms, and three or four rocking in the limbs of a tree while Trippet held yet another. Trippet and Trivia and their children were related to nearly the entire population of Treasure Trolls. Triska and Trousers Teeterklunker were related to Tinkling Gigglesfooten, who was related to Trickle, who was of the Trumpetsnicker Clan, all twelve of whom were Snicker-Doodles on their mother’s side. Trounce Buttonbreaker and his little brother, Tweezer, were second cousins twice removed to Tizzy Trudgen -walker, who was Trippet and Trivia’s grand-daughter through her mother, Tiny (who wasn’t small at all but really rather large). In fact, most of the Treasure Trolls that lived in the land of Hodge Podge were related somehow to the Snicker -Doodles and if they weren’t, they wished they were.
