The Land of Grimney - The Illustrated Adventures of Cora Pearl, aged 12

eve went to see the wibbly elf, I thought she would have returned by now, but maybe she has stayed with him, Nothing more from Xibes |fear

I'm starting to lose track of the comings and goings of our patrons. The Wibbly Elf. Never met the fellow, I know that he's very musical and lonely, so that's a good thing. I mean, a good thing that he's been befriended. Drinks anyone? Oh what did you see in Philomena's mirror? I heard you looked....

Was that really Wayland's brother?

Large glass of wine please
Saw nothing I could make sense of just a woman crying, the trouble is I don't remember much of my past so I have no idea what it means!

Do I see Hogstance Bilgecrack lurking amid the pipe weed smoke? You should have a drink sir! It's been a long time since you last visited and I know you carry a price, but we know you for who you truly are!

I have no doubt that you were as good a man when you served the Crown as you are now dear Urat but I have seen little good of the Knights of this land. Life is simpler beneath the waves. This land is confusing, the men who fight for good are brutes and some of the outlaws are compassionate, no word seems to describe a single person. I believe that if Kalvos were not a soldier I could love and trust him more, it is what not who he is that holds me back. If he is in trouble though I would ride forty leagues to help him, that is who I am.

Silas is a good, honest man but quick with his fists after enough rum. If Darius got himself into trouble, I'm sure Silas would fight to help him. I am still angry with Darius for the deaths in Toraz, if he could only keep his mouth shut sometime!

Are you sure you do not want a glimpse in the mirror? To see your past or see your true love? I will take care you do not stare too deep, I know how easy it can be to get lost in that mirror.

A glass of wine for me too Urat and a toast to absent friends.

I think I see eve hiding in the shadows up amongst the beams, how are you little one ?

Hello Dear ones!

Oooh I passed Wayland and a rather sombre looking someone on the way here! A shame, a shame for they will miss the delightful eatables I have brought with me. I have worked so hard today at Munchkin Manor but had time to make the tastiest pottage with the choicest vegetables from my garden....peas, cabbage, leeks, onions and celery! then a little payne puff for somthing sweet....I know you like fish Philomena but surely I can tempt you with some boiled wild strawberries in some delicious pastry? The left over strawberries I have here...but they are especially for Urat who has made me so snug and warm by the fire in my feather bed! I assure you they are scrumptious and freshly picked today at wibbly wood!

*eve naive grins cheekily with red smears all about her mouth and rubs her belly*


Wibbly elf sends his hellos but will not visit, he much prefers to mope alone...I will persist to try and make him laugh...I tried to tickle him but he just rolled off his toadstool and got grumpy because he landed on his head! I laughed though!...which made him madder still and he refused to speak to me anymore, which was okay as I had things to do so went home. He will feel better by tomorrow and I will try again hah! I could sprinkle him in fairy dust..but it wouldn't be fair to rob him of the one thing he enjoys!

Please help yourself to the eatables,I will set them on this table ...It seems like a tiny bowl of pottage Urat but it is deeper than it looks, just pour. A little enchantment I was taught...I'm not so good at spells generally..unless they involve...mmmm...food!

*giggles*

A magic mirror Philomena!? That is very exciting...and you have found your saviour Silas...what lovely whiskers! Good news then!

Would be better news if he were not locked up in prison still. I long to talk to him of the sea.

You haven't seen Kalvos on your flitterings and flutterings?

Hmmm yes, you and the wibbly elf, eh? I see that twinkle in your eye and it's not fairy dust.
