This was a colourful introduction for Groundkeeper Nicholas to the vine even though the impatient imps cut it short. Very creative Yvette and a good read.

This chapter of the story is so delightful, including this build up towards the impending "Devining". I am so enjoying the progress Nicholas is making in his position as Weatherbury's Groundskeeper.

Comment from Karen Cherry
What a good imagination you have. And you write well. Why can't you tell when a Pteradactyl is using the bathroom?.......Because their "P" is silent. That one is so silly. Karen

Okay, that one had me laughing out loud (silly or not, it's one the boys would have loved when they were younger... boys love potty humor!!)

It amazes me that you could think of something like a waving vine. If we had such a thing happen in real life, we would be frighten. Where did you get the ideas for your story? The pre-teens would love reading something like this....

Aaaah, yes, the magnificent Valentin... quite intriguing, isn't he? ;) :) Thank you for the encouragement! ;) :)
Comment from Debbie Pope
Like the imps, I am ready for the "devining." Where do you come up with this stuff? This is one of your most creative chapters. It is graphic in its fantastic descriptions. I am as excited as Groundskeeper Nicholas to see where are we gonna go? You create high expectations over the new character to be devined. I look forward to it.

Comment from Stephen Force
Intriguing youthful, fanciful adventure. this is the first of the series that I've read. While it is not my cup of tea, it was excellently written. I immediately started visualizing the characters which speaks to me of your skill as a writer. nice going.

Oh, there's some characters in here alright! ;) So glad you stopped in for a 'peek' at the fun, Steve! ;) Have a fantastical day of your own out there! ;) Yvette
Comment from w.j.debi
Ooo, Devine Valentin sounds like it's going to be another interesting character. That the vine can wave and light up so dramatically is fantastic. I can't wait to see what other magical powers it may have.

Comment from Dawn Munro
"Then the coolest thing happened: the end of every stem - of every curl or tendril or leaf - began to actually 'wave' at me." Oh my, how vividly I pictured every word, but especially this!
I'm so sorry, Yvette -- I am letting you down (and me!), but I just can't manage physically --I simply can't be on site for long stretches of time anymore. I DO so love this story! I will try again to do some catching up...

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written chapter where Nicolas is introduced to the imps and they seem excited and accepting him as the Groundskeeper and will assist him wherever they can.

That five is really a six. Your story really sets off the imagination of the reader. I like the descriptions that lets me see the storyline and action that goes with it. Great job. Shirley
