Letters from Darkmania
Some new words which you might need for the letter below!
Schmeelwink = talking flowers that smile when you water them
Slithercreep = huge silent worms that burrow holes on the surface of Darkmania
The Thowd = the Cloud Throne of Necros, the ruler of Darkmania
Chingchingkongbong = ghost guards, who guard Necros in Deathstone Palace. They are the ghosts of the humans who have fallen off the cloud-shrouded cliffs of Darkmania. There are more than one million of them.
Kerpowpowpowbang! = trees that shoot out fireworks, providing a brief moment of light in the darkness of Darkmania
Flickkicktick = the vampire servants of Necros.
Cloudenburr = pieces of glowing amber that can be used to light up the darkness. They can be found floating in the glowing Spookcloud if you are brave enough to enter
Lattaglow – light
N.B. The text of the letter below was memorised by one of the Schmeelwink which Necrofa loves so much. The Schmeelwink was then shot out into space on a rocket.
Dear Stranger,
Please help me. I live on Darkmania, where it’s always dark because my father, Necros, keeps all the Lattaglow in his cave, Deathstone Palace, where he sits on his precious Thoud. He has his Flickkicktick to do his bidding and the Chingchingkongbong to guard him. They scare me a lot because they can disappear into thin air.
I feel scared to go out of the palace because there are humungous Slithercreep digging gigantic holes in the ground and they jump out at you. It’s dark outside, but there are Kerpowpowbang! giving me little flickers of Lattaglow. The Cloudenburr are my only way of escaping, because with them I would be able to see my path. Please could you get some Cloudenburr for me? They’re high up in the Spookcloud, which isn’t what it seems.
Yours Necrofa
P.S. I’m sending this message with one of my Schmeelwink.
P.P.S. Can you also bring an extra lamp just in case?

Some new words which you might need for the letter below!
Flosh = water
Burring = lava
Tufug = obsidian
Icekring = Snowdragons
Flakefloppers = baby Snowdragons (they haven’t grown their tails yet, so they flop around a bit)
Flosharts = Water Dragons

Sidestayer = the obsidian wall which separates Dragontopia into two halves. It was created when the water met the lava. It shifts position, depending on who is winning the battle for territory – the Water Dragons or the Lava Dragons
Shinypower = crystal
Hightops = tree houses made of leaves and cotton up in trees growing from trees. This is where the humans of Dragontopia live.
Coovies = caves
Floshtorm = The giant Water Being (like a walking tsunami)
Burringdeath = Lava Monsters
Snowbaaa = a giant snowball shot from the mouth of an Icekring. Anyone it hits will be overwhelmed by a sense of peace.
Dear Citizens of the Universe,
We are the Icekring of Dragontopia. We live in a world that is divided by a Tufug Sidestayer.
One side is full of of Flosh and that’s where the Flosharts, the Icekring and the humans live. The humans live in Hightops, ride Flosharts and float on islands.
The other side is full of Burring and Burringraw live in the Coovies and the cracks and the volcanoes there.
Unfortunately, there is a war between us, but we, the Icekring, want to make peace and are asking for your help.
Yours snowily,
The Icekring
P.S. We are sending this in a Shinypower inside a Snowbaaa which we have blasted out of our jaws.
Letters from Y-spot
Some new words which might help you read the letter below!
Elnudge = the jungle (where the humans live)
Glowees = trees that glow in the dark
Zombabomba = silver-backed gorillas who guard the royal bank of Tyranna The Lizard Queen
Brocks = rocks like brains with tiny legs so that they can scuttle. They guard the sacred pyramid that holds the Feela
Feela = a magical flower that can heal and bring peace to the planet
Shnoobidiboomboom = a secret tunnel in a tree in the Elnudge, which transports you through to the pyramid containing the magical Feela
Wobbabobba! = die!
Cheemans = half-cheetahs, half humans
N.B. This letter was written on a scroll and kicked into outer space by the Cheemans with their powerful cheetah legs.
Dear Intergalactic Codebreakers,
We are Cheemans from the planet Y –Spot, where everything is opposite and topsy turvy. Animals now do what humans used to do – they hunt humans, they experiment on them and they keep them in a zoo.
There is a war between animals and humans and we are in between. We don’t want anyone to wobbabobba.
Tyranna The Lizard Queen, who lives in her palace in Topsy Turvy, is very evil and is the meaniest meaner in the universe. The Zombabomba guard her and her bank.
The humans live in the Elnudge amongst the Glowees and are scared of Tyranna because she has humans hunted down like chicken and she ate a whole planet before. She could eat the whole galaxy!
We are looking for peace. The Feela can bring that. You can find it by looking for the Shnoobidiboomboom in the Elnudge, which will take you to the desert. The Feela is inside the pyramid underground and the Brocks are the Feela’s protectors. Please can we have the code to get into the pyramid, as we know it’s in hieroglyphics?
Yours ylerecnis,
The Cheemans
