I've been 'drawn' to these figures on my evening train commute. What shall we call them?


Mr. Ting,
No rhymes the reason,
Our Ma'wahng sprang away,
Beep, squeak and giggles,
Gone too, the Chweebian lute and fiddle!

~ Mr. Reinhart.

Chapter 3

(r) Possibly one of the five silver Penterras that once
orbited above the throne of the Locust Queen.
Note the layer of mist swirling around the globe.

"...I emerged partially from the second floor portal which was just wide enough for my hat but not the rest of me to squeeze through. The cryptid was quite tickled by the effect of my predicament.

Glancing about the chamber like a dispossessed periscope, I stopped at the sight of several artifacts which may be the most significant archaeological find of our time. (If I survive the Northern Wilds to present my case)

Sharp-beaked Pecarin

for the Beams of Da'e*
and bid me shine
your Sapindaceae!"

Yet another startling tomograph, recovered from the wreckage of Professor Schmidt's cabin in the Northern Wilds. The print shows a Chweebian Leporidae (aka Nimble Nwee) harvesting lychees with the aid of a living 'pruner'; a tool fashioned from a pole and the surgical snippers of a sharp-beaked Pecarin.

Marshland Sprite...

"You could see the Dandelion Nebula in those days"
said the wistful Binty Nestaloo

Before Romulus...

"I daresay that Plutarch’s seemingly original ‘Luperca Wolf Goddess and the Twins’ was in fact lifted from ‘Wumpopo and the Three Princes’."

Prof. Haesphean Schmidt.

Wumpopo

Wumpopo loves a napping spree
through dales by brook
a shimmering dream.

"The elusive Ursidae Ailuropoda Magnus
(or simply, Wooty Bah Wumpus)
is among the few land mammals to have survived
the diluvian event of the Aucturian age.
My research into this resilient animal
has uncovered several genetic traits
which should interest the Ministry's Chimera...[illegible]"
