Bulletin: The Ministry congratulates the promotion of Hannah Schmidt to Department Chair of Cryptozoology. The position was last held by her uncle, Prof. Hasphaean Schmidt who has yet to return from his (unauthorized) expedition to the Northern Wilds.

Ms. Schmidt was previously a journalist at the Langston Daily where she wrote award winning feature stories on Chweebian and human interactions.  She was also the youngest human staff to be personally selected by the Cryptid Lapis Leporidae to serve on that famous Chweebian rescue mission during the War of the Locust Queen.  Ms. Schmidt is also the only other human, besides her uncle, to have mastered Chweespeak, a skill that makes up for her lack of academic credentials.

There is a Savor

There is a Savor

When Soy is pressed,

Its eyes are moistly,

Its words are breast,

The Peach, its marrow

Sucked yesterday

There is a Savor

Thomas Webster 1847 : Village Choir

‘Savor’ * ‘Savior’

It is a little known fact that B.Farrell's popular hymn “There is a Savior” is an appropriation (some would say, misappropriation) of an established Chweebian chorus. 

While vacationing in the district of Canshurlark some thirty years ago, Farrell had purchased a music sheet from an enigmatic peddler. An honest fellow then, Farrell sought the permission of the author(s) of that strange ditty to adapt its tune with pious lyrics. 

Farrell, a devout Baptist, would not have persisted in the endeavor nor boasted of his purchase had he discovered the piece was penned by otherworldly cryptids who possessed more than just the power of speech.

The villagers of that borderland, however, were aware of the object's arcane origins. And being fearful of the exposure to such enchantment, withdrew their hospitality from Farrell and with some violence cast him out. “There is a Savior” remains inaccurately credited to this day.
