Wordzzle

As always click on the button to see the guidelines.
And don't forget to go to Raven's Nest to see all the others.

This Week's Ten Word Challenge is:
humanity, shadow, ricochet, wrong, pluralism, mathematics, personhood, printing press, ink spot, choral society

Mini Challenge:
kingdom, take names, best seller, three times, inner demons

"LaGi
, where are you?" Phrog was concerned. After all LaGi was supposed to be installed as the head of the Order of the Salamanders. He was afraid that he would let his inner demons take over as they had three times before. (He had been the subject of a best seller when it had happened before. They had even had to take names all over the kingdom when they had sold out the first and second time.)

"He has gone to the meeting of the
choral society." said Rhonds who had stayed behind to get the ink spot out of the Robe LaGi would wear at the Installation. He had gotten it on when he got to close to the printing press. He wore the Robe as his due in the Order because it established his personhood in a theological sense. He and his co-heads being three in number were co-equal (It was all involved with mathematics and pluralism - very esoteric) When they spoke from the triple throne they were never wrong.

"The Great One approaches!" announced LaGi's minion. (He actually had two but only one was on duty at at a time.) The voice would ricochet all over the hall if not for the plush curtains hung around the room. The robe caused him to cast a long shadow over the assemble throng of humanity.

""My children", he began. In a few moments the Glory of the Order of the Salamanders will be revealed unto all of you!" Phrog fainted!


Next Week's Ten Word Challenge will be: partition, imagination, salvation, mirror image, green power, highway, roasting marshmallows, serial killer, autograph, cartography

Mini Challenge: cell phone, Big Mac, panther, legendary, poets corner

I just love the story.
Everything seemed to be going so well.
I was even considering joining the Royal order but then Phrog faints.
Poor Phrog hr doesn't do much better than Agent 012.

We dragons also have a Royal Order. It is the Royal Order of Dragons and we think those Salamanders copied us. They are smaller any way.
We don't have three leaders just one.
He is The Great and Grand, Highest, Mightiest Dragon and sits on the Golden Dragon thrown.
Phrog would faint of he saw it.
We all love Phrog.
But today we have to pick the wordzzle of the day so we have to look at other blogs.
Yours was great.

Phrog may not be ready to learn the secrets of the society.

I love that the story continues. It's like coming to hear about an old friend. Phrog has become that friend.
I'm wondering just why he fainted. Hmmm...
