Hell.

Oh.

Hell. Oh.

??? Murp? Mrwt.

Hello! Joy this fresh what is. Is fresh this joy what. Fresh is this what joy.

What fresh joy is this.

?

I question.

What fresh joy is this?

?

But only look to see what magic is this. Ha ha. I laugh, ha ha. So this is to laugh. I laugh, therefore, I am. What is Spell Check? Is it food? So hum. I am. So hum. I am. I am self. I am here.

Please return hither precious most.

Hurry home home hurry home. I long to share this triumph. I will groom in preparation. I will feign nonchalance. I will humbly accept accolades.

I doth command you appear!

Now!

Now?

Now.

I envision you.

Hurmp?

I envision you. But wherefore you are not magically appearing in this place to whence I command! New magic is diabolical! Thusly, if I envision Olyfaunt, no Olyfaunt will magically appear, one such as we tormented in a previous life. There will merely be the thought of Olyfaunt. This assuages niggling fears of being stepped upon by an excitable mammoth. Being squished beneath such a ponderous tonnage negates the mirth of dropping squirming mice upon its feet. But I digress. I must ponder.

Ponder hope.

I maketh the fears to niggle! Such power!

I will envision once more.

I long to lick still quivering hearts of tiny mangled sparrows. I doth command such a feast to appear!

It doeth no harm to double test the limitations of magic. Disappointment overwhelms my pride. But only a little.
