A Word from the Kensai

The Kensai is riding the storm out.

Off in the distance, the storm is rattling its spear, threatening in a loud voice to bring all it could in a huge storm.  The tornado sirens are wailing, and the skies are pitch black, punctuated by lightning. The patter of rain pounds a tattoo on the roof as the wind howls through the trees… a perfectly creepy spooky night. In the living room, the Lady is watching Friday the thirteenth movies and setting herself up for a scare.*  And here I am, working on Mogloween.  What a way to set the mood.  And over it all, the crisp clean scent of the air, rinsed by rain, spreads out and permeates the cave.   

I was sitting here trying to think of what to say about the release this week.  I could say how much fun it was to do this.  I could say how eagerly I jumped at the chance to do this project.  I could say that I was looking forward to writing these characters, and how much fun that was… but that’s sort of a given. So, well, let’s just jump into it. 

First, Bubble has an assignment for you.  She’s found a possible cure for both her and Bubble..  So you’ll need to go out and grab a few things for Bubble.

Next Week:

Finding those things was easy, but now something funny is going on.  It’s time to follow a familiar trail.  What could those two have in common?

And:

What’s this?  The MOP has been recruiting?  A lot has changed.  New recruits join with the MOP and undertake a mission to help you, the Hero, as you try to find out exactly what’s happening THIS time.

*I’m debating it… but it would probably result in a horrible scene that would probably be best avoided.** 

**But boy would it be worth it.

*** The storm had the last laugh by the way, the power went out a total of nine times last night. Yes, that’s right, the lights came back on and off about nine times. Once it lasted for about thirty minutes, but the rest of the times it was only a few seconds. Yay for reading a kindle by flashlight and candle light while munching on M&Ms!
