(oddly, still Bug Comic) Here we take a little unscheduled detour, as I have some gifts that I don't want to sit on too long--first of all is Schonee's Kyra..I hope you don't mind, hon, that I pushed her into the bug comic, but she was so perfect for the role I couldn't resist--I needed someone gorgeous;) Here she is as Rain's mother, since I needed to make a photo for a table in Rain's room back at the farm. It would be one of her wedding photos from 2380. Rain's father made her tiara, necklace and the cane she's using (she had something like MS, though it was never properly diagnosed) It was probably why she was told to leave the Aer clan she was raised in. Rain's aunt Marian said it was because Mist-Over-the-Mountain couldn't assassinate a chicken. Aunt Marian also said that Misty believed that every time a cow burped, a fairy was born, which was *not* true.(The chicken thing was true). Misty did arrive at the farm carrying a moldy, dogeared, 200 year old copy of The Hallmark Collection of Favorite Poetry, but she also carried a sword from the 54th Aer battalion (to drive off bugs) and a ragged pair of Azali traction boots not much younger than the Hallmark book, and she had walked over 20 miles down from the mountins, through snow, with a cane. Arthur Oakmede was riding back up the road from Fenris when he found her, and talked her into staying at the farm for a few days, and proposed to her two days later. _____________ That's Fabi's Sage Babylon in back, with a beautiful background by Dawn (1010)--I added some roses but it really didn't need it.
