per Queen Gnome Jume 1, 2001... Sedwick was indeed away on a rescue. A fabulous white stag, while moving through the darkness of the woods, just before the sun rose, had become trapped in some heavy underbrush. Sedwick was busy transporting many forest gnomes to the trapped stag. They had to work quickly to free the animal before it was spotted by local villagers. The skin from such a marvelous beast would be worth a King's ransom. Sedwick remembered that he was to meet the two Fae and sent a message to Moss Rock with the two Mouse Sisters. They chattered and chattered all the way. The two Mouse Sisters searched for signs of danger, beside each pool of water, as they quickly hurried to Moss Rock in search of the two Fae. They quickly passed through the vivid gardens and lush green orchards of the villagers. Stopping now and again to sniff and savor the warm breeze, laden with the fragrance of blossoming things. Ever on the watch for danger signs. "We must hurry along; we must hurry along!" they squeaked and resumed their trek to Moss Rock. Sedwick had warned them to be on the watch for Dandersup who may be roaming about that day because of his terrible toothache. Crosswort, a dentist gnome had been summonsed to deal with Dandersup, but in the meantime the Mouse Sisters were to avoid him at all costs. They went about their difficult task of getting to Moss Rock before the two Fae left for Boubliwae. Sedwick in the meantime hoped that he had not overestimated the skills of the Mouse Sisters. A sparrow hawk, called Topaz, because of the color of his eyes, circled overhead as the Mouse Sisters ran through an open grassy meadow. Luckily for the Mouse Sisters he had his dinner already clutched in his talons. The sisters approached an old stone fence which they knew to be the half way point. Out from under a pile of stones emerged Hedgehog with a watering can. "Where are you two going in such a hurry?" she asked. They explained their plight to her and she offered them a lift, however the two mice took one look at her spines and quickly declined; thanking her and without further delay continued on their way. Then, as the meadowlands grew scarcer and the woodlands denser the sisters fears of the notorious Dandersup caused them to move more swiftly continually reciting, "We must hurry along; we must hurry along!". The two sisters moved through the dense forest with ease. They seemed to know every tree. As they ran in companionable silence their skills were keen. Ever listening with their large ears, sniffing with their keen noses and feeling with their long whiskers. Then finally there beneath the large shady oak they spotted Moss Rock. Roses and honeysuckle sweetened the air. Vivid scarlet poppies, golden trefoil and bright-eyed daises patterned the grass in the clearing around Moss Rock. Close by the stocks of purple foxglove, that the Fae used as boots, could be seen. Giddy painted ladies and translucent blue dragonflies flitted among the blossoms and around Cerridwen and Gezub. The Mouse Sisters could hear them telling the Fae "Come, we will show you the way to Boubliwae!" "WAIT" the two mice squeaked. "WAIT FOR US!" The four sat on Moss Rock. Snacked and enjoyed some fresh nectar brought to them by honeybees while the two sisters explained Sedwick's absence. Finally, the two Fae were on their way once again. Accompanied by their winged companions. They waved good-bye to the Mouse Sisters. The quick-witted, airy creatures and the sprightly Fae faded into the forest so totally as to be invisible except for the ultra-blue glow of the energy stones held fast in the hands of the Fae. Leafy branches fluttered cool shadows on the group as they made their way to Boubliwae. [Credits: Mouse Sisters & Hedgehog from The Woodland Folk series by Tony Wolf]

Per MeMeGnome June 7, 2001-- Vina and Temper continued there journey to Boubliwae through the great dark forest. This forest was known were the fierce Greenback knolls lived.These knolls were known to blend in with the forest colors, which enabled them to capture their prey. Garffey was known as the meanest of these and his band lived in a small clearing in this woods. Garffey band was on the proul, as they were getting short of slaves and food. This is what the Greenback used their prey for. Temper asked Vina why they could not stop for a short rest., as she was getting tired after two hours of trecking through the brush and pine trees. "Why can we not fly? Why must we walk?" Vina just rolled back her eyes and said "Think for once why then you will know!" Temper scratched her head and just wondered why Vina seemed so hard to understand sometimes. They continued for two more hours befor the Faes came to a small clearing and saw a area that was covered in green moss and small moss covered rocks. Both Vina and Temper decided that would be good spot to rest. They hurried over to the largest moss covered rock which they used to support there backs on as they sat on the soft ground. Vina said "We will rest for just 10 minuets as we have to get on our way to Boubliwae, and out of this forest befor nightfall." As the fae's rested a lovely scent was in the air, and soon both were fast asleep. Some of the moss covered ground started to move towards Vina and Temper. What will happen Next? Who Knows?

per cerridwen 7/22/01...so here upon the break of day fair Gezub and Cerridwen travel towords the majical land they have only heard stories of. the stones glowed towords the west, and sure enough was what appeared to be a worn trail of dried grass and weeds. With butterflies to warn them of coming danger the two chattered about the stories they heard. "Boubliwea was discovered by gnomes as a place to hold secret festivals and revelry. and when the gnome Gert fell in love with the faerie Rowan, the fae were invited to join the festivities. the place is sacred and most secret. one only is invited by word of mouth." Cerridwen announced. "I have heard of the famouse mushroom balancing contests, and the prize being the horn of a unicorn. and they have faerie bubble popping contests and a bounty of fruit and nuts for feasting!" Gezub adds. As the 2 grew closer, a mist fell upon the forest. "SHHHH, something majical is happening!" Cerridwen's eyes grew large. sure enough there appeared a beautiful rainbow in every color. butterflies, dragonflies and lady bugs fluttered gracefully. a full moon could faintly be seen and stars twinkled, even though it was midday! the mist closed in, Gezub licked the fresh dew off her lips. "i think...we are almost..." suddenly there was sound of a scuffle, and Lana, a guardian butterfly warned "hurry, faster! some...thing approaches, I can not see through the mist but be on your guard, I sense it is Clubdub! why he must have seen your shining stones...!"

MeMe Gnome 07/30/01 As Lana the guardian butterfly suspicion came true the Ogre Clubdub came clearly through the mist. Clubdub sniffed and smelled the sent of the fa. There was something different, another sent was mixed in with it, one he did not know. He took a few more steps and started to sniff again. "Me smell them, me do, me do. Oh! I know you are here and I have made it this far, so you might as well give up to me. Me know, Me know you are here." Meanwhile Gezub and Caerridwen crawled into a deep dark crevice in a large up-rooted tree,this tree so happened to be the home of a very old gnome named Regis. Regis was startled by all the noise and confusion that he heard coming from his dark entrance way and the deep growl noise of someone out side. This gave Regis a shiver right through him from the tip of his stubby toes to the top of his head. Gezub and Cerridwen followed the roots deeper into the tree trunk, Regis headed for his secret hiding place that he had ready for any intruders that were not invited into his home, he made it just in time as they came into his living quarters...Meanwhile Clubdub sat down his large grotesque body onto the outside of this fallen tree and knew he was very close to his quarry. Clubdub may be slow at most things but his nose was one of the best in the land for smelling. Maybe it was because it was also one of the largest and most hideous of all. He knew he was very close as the sent was very strong right were he sat down. Regis very quitly moved his peek hole cover to see who has invaded his private quarters... Gezub -&- Cerridwen looked around to see if this place was safe or even more of a danger as they did not see a excape root. Who's home did thy invade?? Clubdub was not moving as he knew he was near... Just when Gezub -&- Cerridwen though thy found the end of the rainbow, that would lead them closer to the most secretive place Boubliwae they became trapped....

Cerridwen, november 29, 2001 ...Cerridwen sensed danger lurking, but not from the tree roots. They knew they were safe within the earth. sure enough a voice came from above "who disturbs my home?" "Two couragoues Fea" responded Gezub. and around a root poked a wizened old face-of a gnome! "oh you are not tresspasesers. the fea and gnome are friendly. but what is that beast outside my home?" "we did not bring him-it is the ogre-he is following us to boubliwea-we must rid of him or we will never see the enchanted land!" Cerridwen excalimed. " getting rid of ogres is a gnome specialty. you have come to the right place. I have a potion that, when sprayed, lulls anything evil into a 24 hour sleep. and perhaps I shall visit boubliwae with you. it has been so long..." Regis pondered. "you can get us to boubliwea?" "I see you have the magic stones, obviously given you by a freindly fellow gnome. so I know you can be trusted. please enter my home as I prepare the potion and pack. yes, i will accompany you." The 3 scurried around the roots into Regis' snug home. he shuffled to his cuboard and trunks, gathering ingrediants. then he disappeared into his bedroom. at last he said, "now we are set, little ones. just follow me and i will bring you out of the ogres clutches and onto boubliwea!" so the three approached regis front entrance...

Cerridwen, December 19, 2001 ... and poked their heads suspiciously out the door. large as life, the immense and ugly ogre loomed! "fea!" he roared. " me found dinner!" as he roared, his horrid breath nearly rendered the three travelors unconciouse. But Regis the gnome was a quick thinker. as the ogre reached for the 2 fea, Regis raised what appeared to be a spray gun, and gave 3 short blasts, directly at the ogre. "WHAT THAT SMELL!" as thogh anything could be worse than his breath. within an instant, he slumped over. "well,we certainly won't return here for at least 2 days." Regis announced. "he'll awaken and clear out of here!" Cerridwen said in awe "can you please show us to make the potion? it would be a great help to the fea!" "no, it is a gnome secret. Just know if you ever need our help, you can call. we always answer." The trio then pulled out the majic stones which glowed towords the right. fragrant moss carpeted the path. Butterflies, dragonflies, and bumble bees went about their day, happily watching over the three adventurous creatures. Gezub inquired, "tell us about Boubliwea, Regis, what will we find? will we ever want to leave? How is it that this place exists?" " I'll tell you everything you want to know. but first, in exchange for this trip, you must promise never to invite any but the most trusted fea. word of Boubliwea can not be known by any others. that is the beauty of the place. Its members are the most sacred, trusted individuals. You must also return the majic stones to he who gave them to you." "we promise." Cerridwen announced. "and we fae are as good as our word." "well then, about Boubliwea...Regis began...

Cerridwen, February 12, 2002 ..."there is a place that is open to those who have hearts full of love. these special individuals can find this place given the right tools. you have been given the stones. in this place only happiness can be found. there is dancing, meerriment, food, laughter, and hjust a general feeling of well-being. when you leave this place, you must bring what you have learned to the outside, reform the hearts of those that are darkened by greed, hate, sadness, and fill their hearts with love that they too can find boubliwea. it is hoped that one day all of us can meet yearly in this majical realm. Humans cannot find it externally. for them it is an interrnal world found deep within their hearts, it is a place of healing and peace. only the most learned, experineced, and blessed humans can find this place. it is our duty to show humans the way, once we have found it..." Regis fell silent and the 3 pondered this knowledge...

MeMe Gnome-February 15 - Regis told the two fai that their true spirit shows in the power of the stones. Their love and kindness that they have shown will help them find the mystical place they all seek called Boubliwea. The two fai Gezub, Cerridwen and the gnome Regis started out right away after the evil Ogre was in the deep sleep from the spray potion. The morning due was still heavy on the ground. Gezub who was a nture lover thought how beautiful it looked like sparkling diamonds undisturbed there for all to share if they would just open up and see the wonders of nature. They traveled for several hours before they stop to rest in a small glen which was full of several kinds of colorful wild flowers. Gezub was the one who made this statement about the colors, but it was Cerridwen who noticed the strange patterns that they seemed to grow in, and was heavy in thought about this. Regis noticed the expression on Cerridwen face and new that he was on to something. Regis could not remember this place, but it has been close to 100 years since he was last at Boubliwea and he new that land changes. He wished that MeMe Gnome was with him as she never forget the way, as she would not let mother nature fool her...Just then a tiny lady bug was crawling on Cerridwen hand which brought the fai attention to the stones that were also there. Cerridwen hand opened and the lady bug flew away and the stones reflected the pattern of the flowers in a form of a strange map...
