Fuu's Notes

[monster_san]

(This is more of a mental list since paper is a DIY project in the fairytree!)

• There is a dark and light gemstone. The dark one gives moth-like wings, the light one fly-like.
  
• The mist is usually impenetrable to us, but not to animals. It is possible to penetrate it rarely, and it seems to have some kind of disorienting / time-altering effects?
  
• THERE ARE PEOPLE HERE FROM VIDEO GAMES.
  
• There are also people here from different periods of history. Specifically the Sengoku period of Japan. I still haven't told them I'm from 1993....
  
• Many, but not all of us, have fighting abilities and/or magic. Selection wasn't random. I think the people who can't fight were probably brought by accident.
  
• There is clearly a world beyond the mist.
  
• Many of the insects / arachnids we encounter are sentient, but not all. The fireflies and glowworms are the only ones who have been openly friendly.
  
• There is some kind of enchantment on the tree that prevents fire anywhere near it.
  
• Food is provided daily.
  
• We don't have any pharmaceuticals like aspirin or iodine... would it even be safe to take an aspirin at the size our bodies are at now?
  
• Animals sighted: squirrels, rabbit, hedgehog, dog (other side of mist).
  
• According to Chime, the tree is dying and we're here to help. Have not been able to corroborate this.
  
• Chime sells things that are normal sized: sewing needles, bacon slices. Where does she get them?
  
• Swallowing Chime (how? Spiders digest externally!) gave the queen spider invulnerability to magic.
  
• THERE ARE SNAKES IN THE AREA but they can be mobbed to death if we need to. Some people are much too eager to do this. Maybe we should organize a baseball game or something to release tensions.
  
• Fewer new people this month (May) than there were last month.
  
• Sometimes people vanish. I like to think that they've returned to where they came from--like us with Cephiro--but I don't have proof.
  
• Failing to solve a riddle results in a kind of backlash. We didn't solve the one for "a gift of fire" and now starting a fire at any distance from the Tree is impossible. Eren's fire was replaced with an enormous firefly.
  
• The light and dark gems do NOT mix. Touching one to its opposite master gem nearly shattered them, wounded Chime, and made the entire Tree shake.
  
• Our failure to solve the Night-and-Day Riddle caused a number of dead oak leaves to fall, and they vanished shortly after.
  
• The light stream can change colors--it changed from yellow to blue (from one gem color to the other...). Now that it's blue, contact with it causes a general 'down' feeling.
  
• A domesticated cat spent some time outside the mist, and even though we're the size of mice, it didn't chase us.
  
• OTHER HUMANS LIVE HERE!! A young girl in modern clothing claimed the cat (Mittens), believes in fairies, and sent us gifts for taking care of the cat. Given that she came to our tree and knew enough to use the stream, who else knows about us being here?
  
• Is this Earth, and what year is it?! The mood ring dates us to at least to the 1970's, but I do hope we're past that... I wouldn't want to change history by mistake if this is Earth.
  
• It's probably Earth. Where else would a cat be named Mittens?
  
• Possibly Europe or America; the girl is named Abigail.
  
• Apparently, Hikaru, Umi, and I aren't the only girls from Japan to visit other worlds... Lady Celena spoke of a Hitomi Kanzaki. Maybe we should start a world-travelers society....
  
• The tree appears to be in a rural area. There are meadows, a pond/lake, and the brook goes out for some distance. The only sign of habitation we saw was Abigail's house, which seemed to be on a farm or at least the outskirts of a not-dense village. But her father didn't appear to be a farmer?
  
• We are either on Earth or a place that looks very, very coincidentally like it. Still no information on year, but I would say we're at least in the 20th Century.
  
• Chime has a counterpart named Tome who is male and manages a supply of fairy dust.
  
• Chime is green-yellow and Tone is blue. Does that correspond to the gold/blue light and its effects?
