The History of Dizzywood, Part One

Written by dizzywoodexplorersjournal on September 10, 2008 – 11:34 pm -

To some it may be a bit foggy, but do you remember dropping into Presto’s Grove upon your first arrival into Dizzywood? For many, that time came long ago, but if you look out into the distance, you’ll notice the arrival tubes that brought you here. Yup, this is what you traveled through!

Little is known about Dizzywood’s exact location, but history tells us that thousands of years ago, before humans and animals inhabited the world, colossal titans called Ancients could be seen roaming the landscape. Trekking along, sometimes too small to notice, were small faerie-like creatures called Sprites. There are a number of Sprites that you can see cheerfully throughout Dizzywood today, most of which are very playful and admire getting to know you through games, and the nature surrounding them. Hearing them speak may not come so easily, as they must be summoned by musical instruments.

Their more wild and mischievous counterparts are Bogies. Throughout the history of time, they have been known to play tricks, sometimes making it hard for Explorers to travel, or misplacing things. They mean no harm, but can’t resist the temptation to be chaotic at times.

A number of the world’s indigenous animal kingdom, such as the many flying and skittering critters still thrive to this day. They have since become very fond of humans, as many of you have come to own them as your very own pets. They tend to enjoy the company of other critters along with receiving treats you may carry in your backpack.

Much time has passed, allowing these magical creatures to come out and welcome us, but we must always keep in mind that their existence now relies on our care for them and the environment around them. Future Dizzywood Explorers that fall from those tubes must know their history, so it is up to you to continue to pass the stories along.
