Mosslight Fen
Juniper Jell
“A teacup-tall fen-skipper with soft moss-green fur, a pale mint nose, and a tiny orange scarf, no bigger than a pear beside the cattails.”
Juniper Jell is a curious fen-skipper who stands as tall as a teacup and bounces from reed to reed like a dropped pebble on water. She loves being part of plans with friends, but she carries a quiet worry that she will be left behind if she does not keep up.

The Bubble in the Mud
A deep bubble starts rising from the mud in the middle of the fen, bigger and bigger, until the surface shivers like it is hiding a secret underneath. Everyone wonders whether to poke it, listen to it, or run from it.
When the Frogs Fall Silent
The quiet frogs in the marsh all go silent at once, and the usual chorus that tells everyone what time it is simply stops. Without the frog-song, the fen feels oddly unsteady, like something important has gone missing.
Cattails Point the Way
The cattails begin leaning in the same direction, pointing like a thousand tiny arrows toward a place no one normally goes. Their sudden warning makes the fen feel like it is trying to tell a secret before the weather changes.
