Sala: “Look over there – Partovec Cottage. Long ago, counts and countesses used to sit here. In a forest that was their refuge.”
Mandi: “Count Mandi with a mossy crown and a leaf sword! And you’re Countess Sala of the Blue Moss! Together, we rule over dragonflies and frogs.”
Sala: (playfully) “Your kingdom would be very muddy… but fun.”
CHALLENGE: FOREST CREST
Create your own noble forest crest using natural materials. Use a stone, stick, or leaf as your base.
Place on it symbols that represent you in nature (e.g., a pinecone = wisdom, a flower = kindness).
Give yourself a forest name (e.g., Sir Mossguard of the Leaves).
Write down the motto of your natural order.
