Well!
The very small news clip I wrote about the theft of kraken eggs from
Atlantis Valley brought me a little bit of unwanted attention.
The
Khr'Vurr, a terrorist organization based in Dragon Valley, sent me a
present. Yes, I know, Guardian Alexander did warn me not to agitate
them. (See news reports July 18 & 19)
This
morning I opened my front door and found a dead skrivett - a nasty
soccer ball sized rodent covered in leaky pus that smelled like
warmed-up sewer - hanging ten feet above the ground in an old oak
tree. The Khr'Vurr hung it with an Old Western type noose and wrapped
my favorite blue scarf around its hind leg.
The
nerve! What were they thinking! I live on Earth. Hello? What if a
mundane had seen their little gift?
Honestly,
I still don't know how they managed to sneak into my house and steal
my scarf. I can't believe Chief, my three-year-old German Shepherd,
didn't go nuts. He barks when the crape myrtle brushes the window.
I'll
never look at scarves the same way again.
Let
me tell you what they wrote on the note.
They
didn't give me a dire threat like, “Stay out of our business or
we'll kill you.” No, I think I hit a nerve with yesterday's news
clip. The note said, “Only a certified idiot would stick her nose
where it wasn't wanted. Your Loving Readers, The Khr'Vurr."
Well,
I have no doubt in my mind that note proves the Khr'Vurr stole those
kraken eggs. I called Guardian Alexander to tell him my theory. Do
you know what his response was?
He
hung up on me!
Moronic
idiots, I'm surrounded by them!
On
to a happy note, I received a request from a reader! I'm so excited!
In the letter, Miss Clara Burnstien longtime resident of Stigler,
Oklahoma (Earth) and a Land Fairy pointed out that many of my readers
are mundane. Of course, I already knew this, but she went on to say
my readers might want to hear about Sídhí's history. Well, not
simply history, but how the dozens of Sídhí races came into being.
She
said, "…the few mundanes the Council allows to know about
Sídhí are sure to be curious about our origins. And while you're
telling them about the Ancient Ones and how they nearly destroyed us
be sure to tell them a few of our beloved stories."
I
wasn't quite sure what she meant by 'beloved stories' and I wasn't
going to ask. The woman talks faster than a speeding bullet. I got in
about three words during our hour long phone call."
I
think she meant mundanes would like to hear small stories about
special people sprinkled through Sídhí history. Yeah, like I'm an
expert on Sídhí history. Whatever, I'll do my best.
Until
next time - Jodie B. Cooper
