I have been so busy that I haven't written any news lately. But important things have been going on. There are a lot of heroes at Thimblewyck and heroic doings. Marus was quite a hero when he snatched Lina's soul from the fire so she could have life. Some people don't even know what a hero is so I suppose I should explain. A hero is someone who takes on an important and unusual challenge. Many times a hero saves a victim from a villain.
A victim is someone who can't recover from something bad without help. A villain only cares about himself and
will do anything to get his way. Gordon Mole was a hero when he helped Lina escape from Clarissa and her sharp scissors. Our queen, who is very wise, says that everybody can be a hero in their own life. She says that we have to go out, figure out how to solve challenges and come back the better for it. I found some most excellent flowers today, with good pollen and wonderful nectar. Then I let the other bees know where they were with my bee dance. I suppose I was a hero today. Heroes of Thimblewyck, I salute you.
