For those of you who came
here as a result of a search for "Morrel Mushrooms":
This is a page about the
guys who make them. We don't have any on this page! I believe they grow in the woods. This
is a computer. You will have to turn off your machine and go outside to find them.
Help
us! We need a home.
We used to live in the woods in an old tree trunk, but someone built a condo there, and
now we have nowhere to go. We used to spend our days in the woods taking care of some of
the " less fine" points of nature. Unlike those frilly little girls with their
fancy wings, we work in the dirt. Actually, we make the dirt, and mold, and various types
of fungus and such. Maybe you've heard of Morrell Mushrooms? That's our work! But mostly,
we just gather twigs & branches & dead leaves & such, pile them up, & jump
up & down on them untill they turn into new soil.
But
where we used to live is all covered in this hard grey stuff, kind of like rock. And big,
noisy machines come around & eat all the grass. There are no twigs or branches. There
aren't even any trees! So now we have no place to work, & the work must be done, or
soon there will be no dirt!
We
would also like to apolagize for our untoward appearance, as Whitefire made us take a bath
before she would let us on her page.
As a rule, Ash usually
deals with whatever is left behind after a forest fire, turning pieces of burnt wood and
ashes into new soil. But since fires are rare, he also works with dried out things, and,
on ocasion, dead stuff.
Ash
Muck spends most of his time down by the river,
gathering up slimey, gooey stuff and dead things, and stomping them into the dirt to make
(you guessed it) muck, that smelly brown stuff that lies at the rivers edge.
Muck
Ud's job is a little less pleasant. He spends most
of his time with the things that are a little too slimey or foul to be muck, or dirt. Like
the fuzzy grey stuff that grows on the bottom of dead logs, or that gooey stuff that runs
down the trunks of old trees.
Ud
(These faeries
are in desprate need of a place to live. If you have a wood pile, or make a vegatable
garden that's a little over-ripe, they could sure use a hand. The need is so great in
fact, that whoever adopts these guys need not link back to this page. If you want a
certificate, use the one below, but a link back to here is optional. We don't need the
credit. We're just trying to help!)
