The world seems made for dancing.

Still haven't found the duck.
I know I have been getting bigger all the time but today I felt bigger than ever and when I met some deer by the pond and they cast spells on me they stuck! I could shake them off if I wanted to, but they didn't slip away! Each spell is like a different song and I want to learn them all! When the other deer saw spells stuck to me they cast a lot of them.
They all danced with me and cast spells, it felt wonderful to be so surrounded by other happy deer and one fawn stayed and danced with us too! One stag, his name is Faeron, stayed with me the whole day! He led me to one of the trees that lets you cast mask spells, and gave me masks. I love the way they let you sing with different voices and he helped me until I got the one that felt just right.
It was a wonderful day!
I like
dancing with fawns more now that I'm bigger than them, I think. I am still learning about the forest. Once I met
a lot of deer all together who all looked alike. I don't think they were very interested in me. But that's okay because there are lots of other deer in the forest. I found a
beautiful doe with a green pelt who seemed sad, but
when fawns came along we danced, and some deer pretending to be ravens joined us. I stayed with her until the ravens flew away and
we all fell asleep.
I dreamt about very sweet music and slow soft dances.
I met
another deer that played with me around a
mask tree. We got dressed up
almost the same! I think we
confused a fawn though.
A few times now I have
met Faeron, the stag who helped me keep all my grown-up colors and mask. He is always
happy to dance and friendly to fawns!
Most of the deer I meet are always
happy to dance whether they hear the same music I do or not.
Some days though, there are
very special dances. This one was amazing! So many more deer than I have ever seen in one place, and flowers in the air and all the other animals joined in too! I met Faeron there, and a doe named 21 who danced with me before, and Faeron's daughter Dahji, and oh! So many deer! It was the biggest, the best, the most
musical dance I've ever seen! It was like all the little personal music of every single deer and animal and flower that was there all mixed together to one great chorus! I danced until I think I fell asleep on my hooves.
I'm so glad to have found
friends who love to dance!
Normally I don't mind dancing alone, but it can feel very empty when there's a
thick fog. This is my first spring and there is a lot of fog, and spring storms, and I heard that one stag had trouble finding his way.
I can understand why, because the fog just got
thicker and thicker. Then the sound started. I have heard a lot of different songs of things now and I have never heard anything like this before. It was like a wail but not a sad one, it was... hungry, and it kind of rattled up my spine and made me want to run, not dance. I've never been so scared before in my life. At first I just ran in the fog, trying to get away, but I think the fog makes sounds go funny, because the wail kept coming from different directions, just one every few minutes, just enough to
keep me scared.
It was hard to think but then I tried listening for anything else, any other song, and I heard... deer! Other deer. Lots of deer. When I followed the song I found a lot of us gathered at the twin statues, and it felt so
good and safe to be with so many others. We danced and danced, and there were little fawns there too and then I felt bad for them so
I danced with them most of all. If I was scared and lost and I'm bigger now, how scared they must have been! We danced until I think some of us fell asleep. I finally did, and when I woke up the fog was cleared. Maybe we danced the danger away?
I am so glad things are back to normal. I have been so happy that I started looking for new people to dance with. It seems like
almost every deer I find is happy to dance, and once we get started a lot of times
more deer come along to join in! I think maybe now that the fog is gone we are all so relieved it feels even better to
laugh and be silly again!

D'awww this is adorable!
Terpsichore is such an interesting character, many a time have we seen him from afar, we'll have to meet him someday!
He's around, but I'm not on
I'd really love for him to meet some deer consistently, it seems like it's always different people and that's cool, but it means he has no consistent friends yet.
