Prologue: Guide to the Woods
The Pine Barrens of New Jersey, a place of mysteriousness and adventure and home to Terra Olson and her friends James Smith and Ricky Cobalt Scott with Terra's pet ferret, Flurry living in the town of Vineland. Terra, a 16 year old rebel with hints of luck. The 3rd generation born French American has had a mean streak of bad luck, often turning to vandalism and petty theft, even one time fist fighting Ricky with a result of a broken nose and busted shoulder socket. James, a 13 year with a love for anything of the insect kind with a weird looking scar on his cheek. This 2nd generation Native American (Apache mixed with Local Delaware aka Unalachtigo Delaware) often was interested in the tales of both of his tribes including the tale of the forest gods the Delaware believed in. And Ricky, a 15 year old who often kept quiet and was considered a genius with his IQ of 152, however he was often short tempered, resulting in the with Terra. This 2nd generation Finnish/Irish American was often able to think quick before problems arose. Flurry the Ferret, a common ferret with weird cravings for anything with sugar in it. This little troublemaker was found injured in the Pine Barrens itself after surviving a raccoon attack earlier that day in 2008. She was found by Terra's brother Kirby, who along with Terra and her parents, nursed Flurry back to health. Found as an abandoned baby would mean one thing, Flurry is 9 years old. Flurry is actually 8 and a half years old.
