Another late picture. This was my outfit for the MadPea Flutterbyes Hunt that I didn't really get to participate in.

Blood before beauty
What in the world was my Great Aunt up to?
This mansion is so vast and there are so many rooms to explore, but something just seems different in them. I keep getting glimpses from my childhood, as if I remember being here. Then I swear there are little tricks in each of these main rooms. Almost like, puzzles?
I found two lovely cats while walking about trying to discover what I could about Lady Lenore. I always love running in to cats; it makes me miss my furball at home. The pair seemed mischievous and seem to like hiding things.
Apparently my Great Aunt must have known me more than I know, because she obviously understands how much I enjoy mysteries. These almost felt like they had been crafted just for me. In the end I had to decide, do I accept the inheritance or do I walk away?

I have a Great Aunt?
The past few days have been a blur. When I first got the call from a law firm that I may be heir to a large estate I thought they were crazy. The things they were saying simply didn't register as being possible. I have, or should I say had, an estranged Great Aunt, who met an untimely demise. Not only was she just some estranged relative, she was the great Lady Lenore Lockhart, the genius behind the Eternal Youth brand.
Could all of this actually be true or is this just some elaborate ruse? I am so intrigued, yet so very anxious. I managed to run out to get some fashion help before the car arrived...a limousine, for me...can you believe it?! (I just hope I look like someone that should fit in here.)
What a day...what a place...now to see what is really going on here.

When at the coast
...one should try their hand at fishing.
Growing up in the desert, I didn't often get to visit the coast. My father and brothers did teach me how to fish at the watering holes we would travel around. Stepping out into the wet sand this morning reminded me of those times as a young girl. I salvaged the pole from this wrecked boat and gazed out onto my memories and the lovely sunrise.

A Fine Day for a Dive
I've heard about the great Captain Burbridge again. Everyone thought his treasure had been recovered, but there are rumors that there are still some pieces stashed out in the ocean. I am going to have to find my way beneath the waves in order to investigate this time, so this morning seemed like a good day to head down to where all the stories are leading.
There is a strange entrance to the water here, in amongst all the rubble, but what about all these warning signs of sea creatures and...wait, did that say mines?! Well, my tank is full, and I didn't get up this early not to check things out. Now to see if there is anything to these old pirate tales.

Twilight omelette prep
As twilight falls on the farm, my last chance at smashing eggs has come. This is what an intense prize hunter looks like *chuckles*
I had a great time this year hunting eggs and keys on the farm. I wonder what things will look like here next Spring!

Another door opened
My persistence paid off (and all of my bribes to the guards)! You never know if following age old rumors and stories will lead to an actual find, but this time they did. The Laird definitely was successful on the High Seas. Now to see if I can convince the estate to let me keep some of this, or at least donate it to the people that work in the castle.

This looks interesting
I love books; they are truly one of my greatest loves. Perhaps Molly was the same way. It also appears she liked puzzles too. I know all of my MadPea adventures have surely prepared me for this.

Uh, this feels unsteady
I am still not sure how I did it, but I made my way down to the dungeon. Surely Mary put the key right out here.
Wait, did the floor just move?!

Am I...am I falling?!
Well that didn't go as planned...
I was sure the key was right around that corner. I really hope I'm not down here as long as the last guy.

Doors and Hedges Galore!
I can't believe how many doors there are in this place. I was so thankful when I finally found my way into the garden. Now to see if I can figure out where Morag hid this key...

Off to...Scotland?
Is there any truth to this tale of the treasure of the privateer Fergus MacNaish? I am off to Scotland to see what adventures may, or may not, await me while tracking the footsteps of the Laird of the MacArthur clan and his brood.

What a surprise!
Everything in that basement was just odd and off-putting. I had to keep my wits about me though, and unravel the mysteries that would get me home. Maybe I've been in one too many mystery situations, but somehow I was able to make my way out of that basement, only to be met with a blinding light and lots of loud voices and noise.
Had I died? No, thankfully. I was greeted with the shouts and cheers friends. This had all just been a ruse for a birthday party! They were so proud of themselves for surprising me, and I was just in shock. I know I like mysteries folks, but maybe next year we can just go to a restaurant?
Where am I?
I went back home feeling a bit better after I talked to my friend about the letters I had received. She said it was nothing to worry about. And then the doorbell rang...
I don't remember much after that except waking up in this cage. I managed to figure out the lock, but now looking out more clearly at the scene before me...who has done this to me? What is going on?!

Winter's Delight
...or is it despair?
I've started receiving letters from a secret admirer. Who are they, and how did they figure out who I am, much less where I live to deliver letters to me? I'm feeling a bit jumpy as I walk toward shadows now, wondering what may be in them or right behind closed doors.
Lazy, lazy photo dump
So I keep forgetting to post my pictures here, so this is a bit of a catch up post. You can of course find all of these with my little snippets on my Flickr, if you would like to see them in that format. And yes, of course, these were my outfits for Madpea games *chuckles*
Oh, and I have been trying my best to tag the stores in each of my posts there on Flickr in case someone wonders where something is from. I still wasn't sure if anyone wanted a more detailed account of my outfits.
