Hey! My name is Eloise! I'm the mayor of a town named Clarea. It's a lovely town if I do say so myself! I am rather proud of it. Or was...
Let me tell you the story.
It was a lovely morning in Clarea. The sun was shining and everyone was catching bugs and watering flowers. It always brought joy to my heart to see everyone happy and enjoying themselves. Bertha was the only one not out that morning which surprised me as she was normally first out of her house and off to water her garden. It seemed very queer indeed. Last night she had been out late, skipping and catching fireflys. I saw her go off to her house last night. She can't have gone anywhere, can she?
It was then that I spotted Pecan. Wondering around and watering flowers. I slowly walked over to her. I had the feeling that something strange was going on.
"Hi, Pecan! I said. I was just wondering if you had seen Bertha anywhere this morning?"
Pecan looked as worried as I was as she said"No, I'm afraid. I saw her last night but I have not seen her since!"
That was what got me really worried. I had no idea what could have happened to her and I started to get all hot and bothered. What if something bad had happened to her? I had to find out what is happening! I thought.
I gathered some villagers together. Or at least the ones I could find.
