'An elderly gnome couple. The ginger gnome usually chooses a partner for life. Here too, there are combinations other than just male-female.'

Waringin-Witch by Charles Stephan

4

'Be especially careful with old weeping figs and willows whose winding roots are partially visible above the ground. These trees seem depraved and show you a creepy side of the forest. The old Waringin witch; Wèwè is known for peeking into our world through these dangerous viewing trees. The old, hard-hearted witch can paralyze her prey with a single look. In addition, she masters age-old magic like no other and has claimed many victims with her spells and curses. She usually uses her magic to eat, and not infrequently, for fun, she enchants a stray mouse piglet and gives it the body of a quail chick...'

Wonderlijke Fluisterwoud (Intro) by Charles Stephan

4

The Whispering Woodling Woods are surrounded by sixteen ancient trees with magical powers. These trees are also called the secret viewing trees. If you are lucky you can experience the magical life of the Woodlings through such a tree; observe the Forest Folk. But beware, there are also less benign ones that show you a creepy side of the magical forest. Various folk tales of these special sightings have been whispered about.

Birdboy's story by Charles Stephan

3

"One night, the young Gaylibri ran away from home and was lovingly taken in by a group of songbirds, the birds you hear singing here! From their old, wise leader, the Song Master, Gaylibri learned that it is good to find yourself and to dare to be who you really are. He also learned to fly because that is what faeries and birds do. With a lot of patience he was trained by the Song Master. He even taught him to sing beautifully! This sounded different from the real birdsong there Gaylibri had no syrinx, the special singing instrument of birds. Yet there was no Firefly Faerie in the entire area that could sing as beautifully as Gaylibri. The boy fairy stayed with the birds so long and sang with them so often that his face developed a bird's beak. .. Ultimately, Gaylibri overcame his fear of speed and height and was able to fly like the best!"
