Snippet #816146

As I paced, I noticed the notebook. Nillis must have left it behind. I glanced around. The water magisprits weren't awake yet...surprisingly, after my scream. I walked to the notebook slowly, and picked it up quickly. I went back to sit in my reeds, and looked through the book. It seemed like little Nillis kept a lot of notes...and they all seemed to be about humans. I only understood a little of the writing; the only writing I had seen was years ago, and only for what they called a peace treaty, though it involved taking down the entire forest. They must have thought I was stupid, or couldn't understand their language, or would be willing to live in those...Was that a picture of one? No...but details on how the humans built their homes by tearing down so many of out trees...Nillis took an interest in that...I turned to another page at random. How the humans built a fire? ...I saw a few details that could easily be changed to fix it up a bit...like where they put the fire. We had a small area of sand surrounding our lake; the fire wouldn't take down anything under our care. But these humans...Another random page. And another...and another. So many notes on so few pages...this might actually be useful...if something killed me, notes like these could easily remind me of this life...and the use of my powers, too...hmm...
