Kingdom of Folklore Notes
1. Valley of Simms, where most of the giants thrived.
In the Valley, old man Walker (an Anti-Small the fox had encountered numerous times before) kept a barnyard filled to the brim with fat, plumped chickens.
2. snail mail (how the Smalls and other animals communicated back and forth)
3. clothed in miniature garments weaved by the spiders of the Northern Hills.
4. Wisers (very old Smalls)
5. Forbidden Zone. The place was clearly marked by seven, very large orange mushrooms that created a circle.
6. Bad Na-tuate (non-living things in nature)
7. local paper ‘Sprouting Times’, or the forest wide news service called ‘Mushroom National News’ (or MNN, for short).
8. AS’s (Anti-Smalls)
9. Webbers (spiders of Folklore that lived in the nearby Northern Hills) talking ‘Spiter’
10. FLID Card Folklore ID Card
11. Dragonfly Over [Small days were not numbered by the rising and setting of the sun. They were counted by the dragonflies of the Northern Hills darting across the heavens every other day or so].
12. Spiter (Spiders of the N. Hills)
13. Northern Hills that covered over two hundred feet in diameter
14. The entire hill was no more than four feet tall, with wondrous webs spun in every shape and contour. At first glance it looked like beautiful embroidery of nature-made paintings. There were red webs, blue webs, orange webs, silver webs, yellow webs, and every other color of web known to nature.
15. Blue Grass, near the village of Grandeur.
16. Blue Hills where accessed to the worldwide spider web was far and between.
17. Southern Hills, just beyond the valley adjacent to Folklore
18. Mushers!” cursed Nail, as Dingle Berry claimed into the red hair. “Why…didn’t you stay…with that…Dr. Acorn’s diet?” He was referring to the diet reserved for some Smalls that thought they needed to loose weight. Most loved the doctor because he was an expert when it came to herbs and the like.
19. ten pine needles though,” replied Nail patting his tiny belly. He was explaining how he lost weight in Small’s terms
20. At the old age of one hundred and sixty, U.B. Einstein
21. The last few that had run the monstrosity were never the same again. They were placed within the confines of the Dwelling of Ta-Baa. Ta-Baa was as dark as night, and sat on top of the highest hill in the entire kingdom of Folklore. It was ten stories tall (again, in Smalls’ terms), and surrounded by the thickest of trees. A solitary path of black rock was the pathway to the entrance.
And this entrance was three, tree-length steel doors with a key that only the Head Wiser could use. Within this place were the mentally ill Smalls. Some were born that way, while others just turned that way.
At the facility, only ten Smalls worked the place. They would council the sick ones, hoping to bring them back to the real world. Some made it; some did not. The ones that didn’t make it were locked behind thorn bars forever.
It was indeed a sad place, but a place needed
22. an elf from the distant Valley of Shims.
23. Graham Berry, who had been Peer of the Realm for way over 100 years.
24. Hercules Black. The creature didn’t live with the other spiders but by himself close to the Valley of Simms.
25. As far as the eye could see, the mushrooms stretched from one end of the forest to the beginning of the Kingdom of Folklore. It was like a vast ocean of the beautiful (if one considered mushrooms a lovely thing, and the Smalls did) things, just floating there like wondrous oddities.
26. mushroom prince, Ta-Tszar
27. The river without water stood before them, as Red D. Foxx and the little ones finally reached the edge of the woods. This was what the Wisers had called ‘The Forbidden Zone’ for so many years. It was the place where Na-tuate stopped and Bad-tuate started. It was where the seven, giant orange mushrooms beckoned all Smalls to turn back. But, alas, these five could not turn back.
28. Na-tuate: living things within nature.
29. Doffs lived some miles north of Folklore, and were about half the size of Smalls. Living under small rocks and overturned leaves, they would attach themselves to everything and everyone that happened by.
If they stayed affixed long enough, the Na-tuate of the particular animal infested would be corrupt. This successively made it possible for bad luck and ill health to come about.
30. They were indeed the Ratz from far away Rattus in the distant Valley of Rodentants.
31. Car necropolis
32. The entire group stopped, as Red D. Foxx ran after the snake, only to loose it under a large, fallen tree.
“That…blasted Randle! He does have a habit of biting strangers…doesn’t he?” His Irish accent faded, as he turned, heading back toward the group.
