The Amazons were children of Ares by the Niad Harmonia but some called their mother Aphrodite. They are currently camped by the River Amazon, named after Tanais, a son of Amazon.Cancel the Dance of the Knives
Good evening everyone
Gracious, I must appologize for my absence the last day. Salish and I were just settling in to our room at the Hermatige when a carrier pigeon flew in the window and deposited a note on the desk. It was from my son Connor begging me to perform my famous "Dance of the Knives" for the Queen.
I did pack my knives and my costume (made up of no less than seventy veils in all sorts of bright jewel tones). Now how shall I explain this? Well bother, I may as well jump right in and be honest with you all. I do have some stage fright, and I was so terribly excited to perform for the the queen that when I was practising in front of Salish (and I had all 9 knives in the air) I tripped over three of my seventy veils! I went flying, the knives went flying, and, well, you can see what happened to poor Salish. Frankly, he came out of it better than I did.
I have decided that it is best if I play it safe and perform one of my favorite poems told to me as a child by my mother. I will be posting it shortly.

Almost forgot! Thank you to www.pfabangalore.org/ story-owls.htm. I borrowed the owl photo from them.
Cheers,

It is my understanding that the Queen of the Amazons has a thing about knives so I have to tell you Bobbi, she will have loved this performance - even if poor Salish did not. Brilliant!
This was very enjoyable to read. (made up of no less than seventy veils in all sorts of bright jewel tones) enchanting! and poor salish . . .
