Introduction

Hey all! First off I really like Enid Blyton's tales, especially the 'Far away tree' stories. But one thing has always really bugged me about them, and that's the fact that no matter what shit the characters got into they always found some way out. No one got hurt, no one got left behind and there were no real lasting problems from whatever happened. Even when Connie lost her voice she got it back! It made me a little annoyed in my younger years that everything seemed to go their way.

So I asked myself, what if it didn't? What if for, for once, something went wrong? In fact not just wrong but horribly, irreversibly wrong. This story is about the third book when Curious Connie comes to stay. For those of you who haven't read that one Connie is taken to tea at Moonface's house but is a spoilt brat and leaves. She climbs the ladder and gets stuck in a different world when it moves. Of course the others suddenly find a way to get her back and everything is great. But what is they hadn't?

Let's find out.
