Adventures of Ebony and Cream
Ebony galloped across the black swirling clouds, the brilliant light that shone from his eyes lighting his way. He loved this hour of the night, the clouds matching his dark coat so closely that he became invisible, even to the eyes of the prying little winds that always hovered nearby............


Cloud Part 1
Finally, the occasion upon them, Thunder let out his favorite bellow, as Lightning simultaneously lit up the sky. Madame Music, her hand in the air in readiness, gave the cue for her little notes to begin their melodies. At the first musical sound the chains and tiny bolts of energy sprang from the clouds and joined together, dancing with spirit and grace through the sky. Rain and Cloud gave each of the raindrop laden clouds the first push and Wind followed along behind the group to blow them gently to the chosen location where they were to leave the clouds.

Cloud Part 11: The Creation of Winter
The day wore on as the four of them worked. Icy surfaces multiplied and were shimmered to sparkles by Lord and Lady Krystal. Vegetation and beautiful corals became visible through the surfaces of the river as they walked over Ice’s frozen domain. Clear icicles hung from branches and became prisms of color in the winter sun. Wind draped the trees as the snowfall became heavier and they did indeed look as if they were wearing white coats. He stood back and viewed his work with satisfaction as this was the first year he had tried this technique....

Through The Next Cloud
When he looked up again it was to see what appeared to be a huge dark whirling cloud approaching them at high speed. He called to the girls to turn around and go back but within a second the dark cloud had enveloped them. Theodor could no longer see them at all. It was as if it had swallowed the huge butterfly and her riders. In a moment he made the decision that he must go after them and urged Saturn on at great speed right into the dark misty whirling mass.........he felt himself steadily drifting into a state of unconsciousness..........he was no longer aware of anything...........

Joshua’s Dream
As he read, he felt again the sensation of a large presence moving close to and surrounding the house. On this occasion he felt warmed and protected by it. He could not see anything inside the house as he pulled his attention from the pages of the book. He read on, into the night, entering a strange new world, the likes of which he had never heard tell of during his long and varied life. The knowledge sprang to life within Joshua that he had been led to this place and his vision was completely in tune with what was contained in the journals.........
