This was #3: "Sea." #FolkTaleWeekSea
It's sunset, and the two fairy tale kids find that the edge of the forest leads down to a shore. The inky footprints head down the sand and into the sea. The taller kid uses the inkbrush to draw in the book, and with a magical glow of blue dust, a BOAT springs off the page and into reality, bright white against the gray and sepia tones of the scene. A fancy scroll caption reads: "The trail leads into the vast and dangerous SEA."

Not knowing what to do next, the little gray mouse comes down from the snow-covered highlands to the warmer seaside, where he asks a wise old mouse about the letter.

Cartoon drawing of an ocean, with the sun setting on the left side of the horizon. A small brown boat is sailing in the water. The words "Folktale Week #3: SEA" are written above the ocean artwork. Cartoon drawing of a seaside area, with a small house in the foreground and a lighthouse in the background, surrounded by the sea. The little gray mouse is visiting the resident of the house, an old wise mouse, asking about what to do with the lost letter.

Another prompt for @folktaleweek Today is the story of Francisco, a man who disappeared at sea for five years and then was found turned into a half-human, half-sea creature.

Cricket motioning for help from a body of water in the shape of a horseshoe. There’s a pile of clothes off to the side.

„It’s the first day of November and so, today, someone will die.“

Maggie Stiefvaters THE SCORPIO RACES made me fall in love with Kelpies. It’s a book about the rough sea, creatures & about an unusual friendship and how wild creatures cannot be tamed.

A creature similar to a sea horse but this one looks much more agressive with tiny spikes everywhere and a head like a horse.

Together they sailed across all the oceans and seas of the world. They had many adventures, just as they had dreamed. As the years went by the boy worked his way up to Sailing Master, in charge of navigation and directing the course of the ship. It was a prestigious but difficult job and he started to think of leaving his life at sea behind. “We have been travelling many years my dearest swan.” Said the boy “I would like to retire and perhaps put down some roots in a sleepy village by the mountains.” But the swan was not ready to end her adventures. “There will be plenty of time for that later. ” Said the swan. “We should sail the world for one more year, while you are still young.” The Boy could never say no to the swan, and so they soon set off on their final journey.
