The humans are celebrating that someone stole the ground hog’s shadow? All of the shadow thieves that I know are not to be crossed. In the corner of the scrying glass, I think I see at least two hunting in the crowd.

Many believe that Weed was born with swords in her hands. For the few of us that know her, we understand Edweeda was twisted by the La Belle Dame Sans Merci. The Dame burned combat and fierceness into Weed’s soul creating one of the deadliest creatures you’ll meet on the Untrodden Ways.

All these years later, I still have the same nightmare. The rebel Snowbound are attacking me when Weed looks into my eyes. Bright Lady, her eyes burn with Muspelheim’s flames, and she cuts down the Snowbound. In my nightmare, instead of saving me, Weed comes for me next. That’s when I wake screaming.

It didn’t take much to convince the garden gnomes to follow me back to Fair Elfland. They were looking for a stronger guardian. I assured them that few could beat Wood in open battle.

On a quick trip back to Woodland Home, that cursed fool Doren Hidrson opened a way-portal onto my patio. The net traps caught him. We had words. Wood is doing well. He asked me to pick up some garden gnomes for his collection.

Human rudeness knows no bounds! Today Agent Pine and Agent Spruce from the John Culling Society joined me for lunch uninvited. I strongly suggested they take up roots and learn some manners. No longer hungry, I left the bar maid with the money from their wallets and two new house plants.
