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

Well I'm glad you got that off your chest Urat!! happy barrel tapping

You will see more clearly, there is a bond between you that is so strong. I know how you feel though eve, I fear to look for Kalvos as I do not want to sing another lament so soon.

Xibes though, Xibes will be fine. I felt her breath pass my ear this evening as I broke the waves of the lake.

Urat, us mermaids do not fight between ourselves but yes we take arms if our city is endangered. I can wield a trident myself if needed but we take pains not to spill blood unless we must. Silas is not a pirate, he is just a sailor. I knew a pirate once, he was the worst of all men but even he had a side that was not pure evil.

As Urat is tapping the barrels, does that mean we help ourselves again? He really should get a barman as we drink more free drinks than we pay for.

aww Urat! you come and go always tapping barrels...I tried but they did not tap back..so it can't be much fun!

I didn't forget Sweeney Green, here it is in my pocket - I heard that he is partial to sauce and here is a special recipe with lots of parsley for his fish suppers!

Perhaps Philomena would enjoy it too!

I do not understand the goings on very much...the King and Queen enchanted with a chicken? My chickens seem so friendly but I will be sure to keep an extra special eye on them.

Battles and fighting, fighting and battles - I do not imagine Urat wielding a weapon, but there we all have our paths to walk to get where we are going. I pinched a pixie once, a rather frightening experience as it came at me with sharp teeth but it wasn't expecting a fairy to pinch it really hard on the nose!

Lets hope that Wayland and his brother return some night when we are making merriment, with dancing and singing, then perhaps we shall see a different side?

I shall come down a moment and fetch my thimble of....wi-een, swoozy liquid! Then it is time for me to sleep..I've been so busy. Perhaps tomorrow when my mind is cobwebless I will look in the magic mirror and look for Xibes if you are still willing.

Sweet dreams precious ones!

*eve naive flutters down and drinks up the thimble full of swoozy liquid!*

Goodnight eve I think I shall be away to my bed also, I have a busy day tomorrow

I shall go to my lake and try to make sense of this land. Sweet dreams landmaidens. Sweet dreams Urat.

Urat...dear U-rat! *tries to call quietly* there are some visitors in the back room...wanting you. I'm going to sleep now...but up here!
