View from the window: The Gathering Commences



The path that runs through the Grinds by the East Wing of the Mansion eventually reaches the Lake, where the Peacocks, Vampire Sheep, Sinister Bunny and other creatures dwell.

I was over that side of the Mansion the other lunchtime and happened to glance out of the window, and caught sight of these two fine creatures who were staring into the window, trance-like.

It isn’t unusual at this time of the year for creatures such as these to appear – the dragons have been here for a few weeks now – but it is unusual for them to be here in the daytime. And for them to be so close to the Mansion, for that matter.

Looks like they may be starting partying a little earlier than usual, then… I’d better get myself some earplugs. They make a terrible racket when they get going…

      He does, doesn’t he. Although, he has come with a pack, so looks can be deceiving!

    A handsome fellow, that wolf. Appears peaceful. I don’t believe you’ll have much trouble with that one. The rest? I have no idea. ^^’

      Exactly, Tess. By the rest, I’m thinking you mean the pack… although you may mean the other animals. Either way, they’ve all been no trouble so far!

        Not the pack, Tom. The rest of the animals. Not sure about them either way. Hard to tell from here. 😛

      Oh, they’re there Diane. Have been for a while now. I posted a quick shot of them the other day, although it wasn’t too clear… probably a good thing!
