Hello all virtual letter writers and story tellers..

I have decided not to tag anyone as many people are having individual struggles still..

I want to respect everyone's space and feelings..

I am feeling strong enough to write on here today....I cannot assume that this is the case for everyone else because I suddenly have found some adrenaline..

So without further ado..........................................

Following on from last post....well written as an overview including everyone respectfully...

The little girl ....at times known as a Selkie Fowlk....at times known as the nameless little girl...was still in shock, whilst seated at the dining room table ...a beautiful spread of food for all..

She was not used to having her friends sharing a meal with her...in fact was not even aware that her friends were known about...

She loved every minute of having them there but still felt distanced...as though she was out of her body ...looking down at the large gathering of friends of all kinds with professor, ballet teacher, piano teacher, cook as well..

She was not aware that her mind started to wander and in her daydream state she was reminded of how she met deer....now seated at the dining  room table...

What about those imps? Where were they now? Why were they so mean? Not even thinking about lost treasure...

Her thoughts then went to how could she now manage more adventures? Would she be monitored more closely.?

She must come up with a plan in adance to be ready to leave at a minute's notice..

She excused herself from the table thanking all of her friends and castle members for such a lovely meal shared together...A huge thank you also for allowing her friends to be invited....making the most out of the opportunity...milking it??...could she please have them all over on a regular basis?... 

A few exchanges of hurried looks with some eye rolling...resulted in...we will of course think about this my dear...we at first need to have a serious talk with you..

At once the little girl yawned.....feigned feeling faint...exhausted....needing bed immediately..

Without any further fuss she was assisted upstairs to her bedroom....helped and tucked into bed...phew

Once the nameless girl could hear nothing from the other side of her door....she lit a candle and delved into her cupboard which was so big that she could climb inside and close the door....in search of her school satchel..

She had squirrelled away some biscuits wrapped carefully in a tin...some fruit cake...sliced and similarly stored...a few bananas and a couple of shiny apples...

Tomorrow she would find a hip flask that professor used which she must rinse well  as it had a strong odour that smelt like methylated spirits...

Sneaking out of the cupboard....hiding the satchel under the bed...blowing out the candle....she climbed into bed..

Talking to herself about her next adventure...this time much further away from where they had entered the woodlands...

She would set a trail of crumbs to follow..

She would set a trap for the imps....she could  use some shiny ornaments that were on shelves around the castle...very dusty...still appealing to the greedy imps..

She jumped out of bed as she remembered that she had not been back the the library and needed to check that the large bevelled glass with leadlight window needed to be closed...

Carefully she made her way down the stairwell...by shifting her bottom from step to step should someone just appear..

On entering the library she felt the cool air....closed the window..

She then noticed the same book was open on the desk..

Glancing at the page again as she had taken a candle with her which she then lit....she noticed a story about a magic coin that had been stolen centuries ago...this coin had magical powers to bring a wish made by the beholder of the coin at any given time....She read the fine print...the person had to have good intentions otherwise the wish could trick the beholder at a later stage...

Carefully closing the very large book with quite a huge effort and stifling her coughing...so much dust...who cleaned the castle?.....something shiny dropped out..

Oh my thought the nameless girl ...there it was...the magical coin...

So unbeknownst to the girl...the coin would return to the book...unbeknownst also to all previous users..

The girl held the coin snugly in her left hand...admiring the shine....noticing a change starting to come over her...a sense of growing larger and far more powerful....

She had not made a wish yet...

The coin then spoke to her in a whisper in celtic tongue..

oddly and with great surprise the nameless girl understood the meaning..

make a wish ...translated version....

be careful....

She closed her eyes very tightly as little girls do when they are told to think about something carefully in particular wishes...

I wish that I could fly.....I want to be able to fly all over the island and see what else surrounds the island where I have never been away from.

A voice from the coin..."you must have food, water, warm clothing, a raincoat with a hood" 

You must not breathe a word of this to anyone else.

Do you solemly promise to abide by these rules? Yes, Yes please said the little girl..

She rushed to the big cupboard in her bedroom. lighting her candle....located the required clothing...then reaching under the bed retrieved the packed satchel..

With all of her provisions together..including her special teddy bear packed under her arm underneath her warm clothing and raincoat with a hood..

Suddenly she felt her body elevated....pass through walls..fly high over the castle...grassed lands and finally the woodlands..

She could clearly see the large lake beneath her glistening from the moonlight..

How astonishing her eyes had adjusted to the night sky and moonlight...She was able to see in the same way as other creatures..

She flew for what seemed like hours..bravely turning on her side...diving low... skimming just above the lake water...smelling the plantlife..

Something caught her eye.. an object made out of wood moving along the surface of the lake carrying 7 little people...she had not seen a wooden river boat before..

she took a photograph in her mind and flew higher,,,higher into the sky....feeling shaky...unsafe...

turning around she said out loud.... home please..

next morning she awoke...what a dream she had had..
