User blog:Tree Climber/The tale of a Servant


 * Simon was a servant to the house of Brock, as were his parents, and his grandparents aswell. He was a slender young squirrel of about 61 or so seasons old and very dedicated to what he did, infact, he was already a footman at such a young age. This preticular morning the masters breakfast was running behind so the footmen and maids had begun to help the kitchen staff to get things ready. Simon stood next to the cook, a fat old mouse named Mrs.Drubbles holding out a platter as she piled acorn pancakes onto them.
 * "Simon, you better get going with those pancakes, his lordship has just arrived," cried a sweet otter maid named Sleek from across the room, just as Mrs.Drubbles slapped the last one onto the platter. The aggile squirrel dash through the kitchen, dodging at pot and full bowls and then walked calmly into the hall.
 * Upon entering the main hall of Brockhall, the usual breakfast sight greeted his eyes. At the end of the long polished elmwood dining table sat the great Lord Brocktree, dressed in a robe of green silk he sat tall and majestically, whispering something to the kindly looking badger woman to his left. This was Lady Carium, the wife to Lord Brocktree of Brockhall. She was short and graceful, wearing a purple satin gown. Across from her, to the left of Lord Brocktree was a stout and homley looking badger woman, with big, welcomeing brown eyes and a smile to match. She wore a simple blue dress with a yellow apron. This was Lady Daisy, sister of Lord Brocktree. Next to her sat her mother, Lady Tania. She was an old, slender badger, with keen strict eyes eyes and pursered lips that warned she was a no nonsense woman. Across from her sat three highchairs each holding alittle badger dibbun, two pretty little girls and an adorable little boy, all still in the pajamas. The little boy was Boar, son of Brocktree and Carium, and his sister was one of the badger girls, she was called Mellie. The other badger babe was Boar and Mellie's cousin, Petunia, dauther of Daisy. They were all eating under the watchfull eye of their nanny, a old hair nurse called Nanny Waggem.
