| The youngest Jenny Elf is talking with her older "sisters" about
recent events.....
The land of Xanth is know for it's puns. Some would say that it's most
endearing feature is puns. Others would say it's one of it's most annoying
features. A native of Xanth is able to avoid more of it's deadly or inconvenient
features easily enough, but there are still some features not so easily
avoided. Sometimes one will leap out at you and hit you head on....
Like the one that hit's the youngest of the Jennies, knocking her off
her feet.
The others see something deep blue and translucent form seconds before
it strikes right behind the chatting young elf. It's in the shape of a
stylized wave and if one looked carefully one could see it has similar
features of a human (or of another specimen) brain in it's ridged surface.
But it's over too quickly for examination, and the others are too concerned
with the sputtering elfin girl's health and well being than the composition
of the brain wave (the preferred mode of travel by stray thoughts).
As the others help the befuddled elf to her feet, Jenny's mind is flooded
by the images, emotions, facts and figures of the previous owner's flash
through her mind.

 Usually,
such stray thoughts are here and gone again, but some thoughts with some
weight (i.e. heavy thoughts) stay and don't just blow away with the next
breeze.....gone with the wind.....
Go Back
