    Started out to do something with a scary tower and the ravens pouring out, but the tower I created wasn’t scary at all, so I swapped my stone idol and turned it into a sunny thing with palm trees for hair!!

    Thanks and welcome! What’s weirdly interesting is that this is the first comment of a long series of yours, and the last of all my replies, luckily we humans can sort out that space time continuum paradox !!

    Aha, thank you, that’s usually the final part of one of these, you get the players in position then start turning the sun, kind of like being a Director!

  • Firedrake

    A very strange (and happy looking!) nest those birds have.

  • syd baker

    syd baker

    Yes, I figured even an ominous stream of ravens couldn’t be that evil if they lived in such a jolly stone idol!

    This is so good! It draws me to imagine what could happen next! The light, birds, idol man, the kids body language, everything is exciting! Great imagination!

  • syd baker replied

    Aha, now you are under my spell! As a child I could take out a rowboat and imagine all these things, even the passenger, it’s how I played for hours, never realizing one day I could bring it all back like this!
