In the very first tale told by Harpo, the 4 characters below are on a quest to repair time and the weather (top to bottom – Princess Lovey, Chef Larry, Gorge the Troll, and the lavender witch). In the excerpt, Harpo discusses the difference between gnomes and dwarfs. Gnomes and dwarves. Dwarves and gnomes. What […]

One of Harpo’s chronicles told the story of Rindle Mer, pictured below. Bekka’s knowledge of this story comes in handy during one of her later adventures. The Woods Beyond the Wood were beyond the Danken Wood in land located east of the Kinngish Queeendom of Fiddleeebod. Formerly rich, lush, moist and leafy, the woods were […]

Lace, the second chronicler, passes through the portal at the bottom of the well and visits Earth in her final story. An excerpt appears below the painting of what I imagine it looks like traveling between portals from Boad to Earth. There was no splash. The water opened below me, and I fell into a […]

The wild and energetic Triplet Princesses Three take center stage in Harpo’s Chronicle, The Land of the Rainbow Giants. In the rough sketch below, that’s Wun on the left, Tuu in the middle, and Thrii on the right. “Don’t wake them, Mal. It’s so peaceful when they sleep,” said the Kinng. “Doesn’t I know it?” […]

The formidable Princess pictured below is Nimble Missst. She is the focus of two stories. One was written long ago by Harpo. The other is this one, Quen Nim, written by Bekka. “Ridiculous,” said Nimble Missst. She stood on the ledge part way down the cliff and close by the cascading O’Tan Falls. “Ridiculous times […]

This excerpt from THE ACROTWIST CLOWN, part two of ‘A Tale of Fiddleeebod’, features Nobb and Jemby, pictured below. Almost a decade has drifted by since the shocking conclusion of part one, ORRUN. Nobb, the Acrotwist Clown and Jemby, the Goblin alone on the shore of a faraway sea the acrotwist clown paints his face […]

Harpo, the first chronicler, wrote a two part story called ‘A Tale of Fiddleeebod’. Today I’ll post an excerpt from part one, ‘Orrun’. In it, a winged Prince and his faithful servant are fleeing for their lives. The faithful servant, Yones, is pictured below. RAKATCHABAROOOOM!! Boulders bounced, tumble crash. Lightning flashed, crooked quick yellow daggers […]

The first story written by the second Chronicler, Lace, describes a single night she spent in the company of a time-traveling shapeshiftress, Zom Falbu. The painting below depicts Zom Falbu captured in mid-shift. A single night spent in Woeful Wanderers’ Wasteland listening to a time travelling shapeshiftress named Zom Falbu. There. I have written it […]
