Where the heck is everybody???

​For those of you who have been following Hungry (and for those of you who are new to the adventure), we thought it best to bring everyone up-to-date on where everyone in the Realm of Wymsy and the Shadows' Realm is at and what are they currently doing... 
To start off, we last saw Hewy, Parsley, Cornelia, Efem, and Sprout leaving Parsley's mushroom cottage together to meet with the Sleeping Sisters after receiving a Petal Post invitation.

Spirits were high as Hewy was hoping to see someone he had not heard from in many years and the others were excited as they had never been invited before to meet with the Sleeping Sisters. Even though they had received messages from them several times in the past, now they were being invited into the Hallow Chambers.  The only one who was not excited was Sprout - all he had hoped for was dinner.  I mean, how does one expect a growing teenager to survive without frequent meals?
Picture
Little do they all realize, but this unique meeting could shape the entire future of both the Realm of Wymsy and the Shadows' Realm. ​
Picture
Meanwhile, Nemmer, the Archer of the Elfshot Guild and Cornelia's husband, is off on a mission that Cornelia and Efem started him on.  He and The CAT were sent to find Hungry.  Currently he is somewhere in the forest continuing to follow the trail but where The CAT is, nobody knows.
Picture
While Nemmer (and who knows what The CAT is doing) is searching for Hungry, the inhabitants of The Baron's Mansion in the Realm of Wymsy are also wondering what has become of their dragon friend.  They had last seen him going off to play with Meen, the Pyksee.
Picture
The Baron wonders what has happen to him for he had been hoping for a new adventure. While Griselda, the Dowager, sees Hungry as a new hope for the future. Fiddlefaddle and Sneefle are there to serve and watch over these residents as  Fiddlefaddle is the Baron's BAT man and Sneefle is the Dowager's faithful  servant.
Picture
So where is Meen?  She is off on another mission for Hunter, the King of the Shadows' Realm.  Occasionally she is tasked by him to run messages since she likes to spend most of her time running and jumping (if not also playing practical jokes).  Normally, a tune is all that fills her head when she is jumping, but this time, she too is wondering where her friend was at and if she was going to maybe bump into him as she delivered her latest message.  
So, now that we know where everyone else is, where is the guest of honor?  He is currently somewhere in the forest searching for his lost pillow and trying to find his new friend, Sprout.  Hungry had first met Sprout outside of the Sugar Plum Bakery but lost him as they were traveling back to Sprout's home on the other side of the forest.  If only Sprout had known that the others were looking for his new friend, just maybe they might have found him sooner...

The Gathering of Great Minds...

6/9/2020

​​As Hewy and Sprout continued the journey to meet with Sprout’s mother, Parsley, Hewy tried several times to find out more about the Petal Post. “Are you sure your mother can read these strange markings?”  asking again as he looked at the Pedal Post he had been carrying since he met Sprout.

​​“I told you Hewy, mom gets them all of the time.  Once I heard her talking to Cornelia and Efem about how they would look forward to getting one but that was a long time ago.  Now when mom gets one it usually means trouble ‘cause she has me running lot of errands for her," Sprout answered.
Picture
"​I don’t mind though since most of the time it takes me by the Sugarplum Bakery.  Have you eaten there?  I wished I hadn’t thought about that.  I’m getting hungry already.”
​Hewy just shook his head from side to side.  How could this sapling of a boy eat so much?  He had already gulped down a giant muffin!  “If I ate like him I would be as big as a Dragon,” thought Hewy.  As they continued on the trail, each deep in their thoughts about food, little did they realize that high overhead a bird was watching them.
Soon the Mushroom dwelling of Parsley appeared.   As the two entered the home Sprout hollered, “Mom...  I brought Hewy home to see you.  By the way, what’s for dinner?”  Again, Hewy with his usual frown on his lips, just shook his head  thinking about growing boys and their stomachs.
Picture
​“Good day Hewy,” Parsley said ignoring Sprout’s dinner question. “You know Cornelia and Efem don’t you?” she asked turning to introduce them to Hewy. ​
​"Good Day Efem, Cornelia.  I am here to see Parsley.  I was told she could help me with my problem," said Hewy.

​As Sprout went off to the kitchen for something to eat, Hewy told Parsley about his day.
“Today in the village I had something strange happen.  A magpie dropped this flower at my feet and then just flew off.  I couldn't make heads or tails about what it was until Sprout told me it was a Pedal Post.  He says they come from the Sleeping Sisters and that you might be able to read it?  Can you?  I can't imagine why I would get one but I am curious to know what it might say."
“Yes Hewy, I can read the message and if it is intended for you I will tell you what it says.”
​Hewy quickly handed the Post to her as he had been quite nervous that he would never be able to find out more about the message.  As Parsley started to read silently to herself, Sprout kept poking his head back in trying to find out what was for dinner.  “Sorry Sprout.  Dinner will have to wait.  Right now all of us will be taking a short trip with Hewy.”
Picture
​Cornelia was a little startled to hear what Parsley had just said.  “What do you mean Parsley?  Where are we going?” she asked.
​“The Petal Post is indeed for Hewy.  The Sleeping Sisters are requesting that he come to them and we are invited as well,” she told the others. ​
Picture
"Now that was strange," thought the surprised Efem.  "How could the Sisters know that Hewy would come to Parsley to have his note read?"

Parsley continued, “I have never met one before.  I have received the Posts over the years, but have never seen one of the Sisters in person.  They are a mysterious guild."
​Both Cornelia and Efem agreed.  Soon the discussion began on how they would find the Sisters  since none of them had ever been invited there before.
​It was at this moment there came a loud rap...rap... rapping at the door.  While Hewy and the others were all talking about trying to find their way to the Sleeping Sisters, Sprout opened the door to see who was there.  It was a large black and white bird – in fact, it was a magpie.  Sprout did not know it, but it was the very same bird that had been following them. “Mom, there is a big bird at the door looking at me.  What do you want me to do?”
Picture
​Hearing about a bird, Hewy quickly came out and told the others that it looked like the one that had given him the Petal Post.  The bird nodded its head once, then flew to a nearby tree.  As it watched the others, it would occasionally bob its head as if it was pointing to something.
​“I think it wants us to follow,” Parsley told the others.  Nodding its head now up and down, the bird flew to another tree further away and stopped to see if they were indeed following.  “What are we waiting for?  Grab your belongings folks and let’s see where the bird leads and yes, Sprout you can bring the the cookie jar.”

The Language of the Flowers...

There is always a process (usually not without a little research) that goes into each one of my characters.  Awena has been very patient with me while I have been doing this.  Part of the process for her has also involved me working in my garden.  I think about her as I try to put the last of my plants around my fairy homes while jumping in and out of the rain drops as they fall.

​It has been a crazy spring with the cooler weather and summer not having yet arrived; p
lus with the mandatory isolation -- it has been a time of many changes.
​But Awena is finally ready to move forward into the next big stage of her transformation... the mold making process.
Picture
So, as she is drying out, I look back at the changes we have made to our yard.  Did you know that gardening has been one of the major activities that people have turned too in this time?  You could say that through this activity maybe we are rediscovering and reconnecting to our environment.  

​
​There are the many things I have to consider when planting in the yard. Will the flowers get enough water? Will they get enough sunlight to grow and flourish? Caring for them creates in me a connection where I can only hope they will bloom and blossom where I have planted them (and talking nicely to the flower fairies that watch over them doesn't hurt either).  Did you know there is even a Flower Language?
Picture
​I have found this form of communication interesting and love how it was very popular in the Victorian age; especially between lovers and friends who wanted to send special messages secretly to each other.
Picture
This secret code has always intrigued me which is why I did more research into the Language of Flowers and purchased these cards from Cheralyn Darcey.  They are full of special thoughts inspired by the flowers and will be used in some of the messages Awena creates in her petal posts.
Notice that Awena's eyes are closed because she is in a transidental pose, or meditation.  She is communing with her flowers even as we speak.  Hopefully she will put in a good word for me with the flower fairies... you think?
