​"Morning is my favorite time of the day," thought Griselda.  "I can enjoy the latest edition of the Bellwether and have my fresh cup of tea in peace."

"Now where is that section that Sneefle was telling me about?  Something about the Baron placing a letter again this year," she remembered as the Dowager turned to the Lovelorn page of the newspaper.

Would you be my Valentine?

​I am the Dowager Griselda, the mother to the young Baron Belvedere Allowishes Theodore Steffon.  

​​It all started but a few weeks ago.  Traditionally this time of year, I like doing some of the rituals of my youth.  It began with me blowing on a seedling dandelion and making my ‘Wish’ as I did of old.  Then I felt a tug!  If anyone can figure out why I would be having these feelings, it would be Belvedere with all of his worldly travels and experiences.

The ‘tug’ isn’t very strong, more of an annoyance actually.  Normally this feeling would come when a wish had connected to a Wish Dragon.​

​Griselda is in the process of getting dressed. With so many details that go into presenting oneself, while we are waiting, I thought I would share a little bit about her.

Griselda was born in a 'Wish'. How can something or someone be born "in a" wish?  Well,  according to Webster's Dictionary, a wish is to have a desire for something.  I saw something that sparked a desire within me, and my wish (Griselda) was born.

An interesting fact about Griselda is that she lived when the Dragons were plenty in her land. There were many different types and each type had a special magic.  Some Dragons could disappear, others could find missing items that had been lost, but the most special Dragons (according to Griselda), were the Wish Dragons.

​She still clearly can remember the day when she received the tattoo of the Wish Dragon on her hand.  It was a very important symbol and distinguished her and her clan apart from the other Villagers.  Just as she proudly wears the symbol of her past, she knows the power of the 'Wish', and how it is connected to the Wish Dragons. 

In her youth, Griselda helped the Wish Dragons in granting wishes. The problem with a wish, is that sometimes the one making the wish is not really clear as to what they desire (and to a Dragon that takes things very literal, it can create a multitude of troubles).  Anyone can make a wish, but the knowledge of how to answer the true desire behind the wish and avoid creating more problems is how Griselda and her clan helped the dragons.
