About me:

About me:
My name is Venimalia and I’m an Imp. What’s that, you ask? Imps are quite small, but we can pass as human if we want to. I wear high heels and everyone thinks I’m just some small woman. Except that I have yellow eyes like a cat. If I want to pass as a human, I have to wear contact lenses. I have to say, modern human technology is quite practical, but here in my realm, Imprana, we use magic. Imprana lies in a dimension parallel to the human earth and can only be entered and left by Imps.
I work as a keeper of knowledge, which means that I’m in charge of memory stones. See, we don’t have scientific books, we have magical stones that one can unlock to gain knowledge or abilities. One needs great magical powers to unlock some of these stones. Thankfully I am that. Unfortunately I’m also no more than semi-sane. At least people tell me that every time they try to find something in my collection. Personally, I think of myself as slightly eccentric, slightly plump and quite capable at my job.
So here in this blog I’m trying to give my fellow imps and all interested humans insight into my thought processes. I welcome any comments, but please don’t expect a logical-for-you answer.

newbie alarm

My weeklong vacation is over and its back to creating memory stones. I got to the lab bright and early this morning (okay okay, it was more grumpy and slightly too late – but honestly getting up is and always will be the hardest task in any day). Anyway, first thing I see when I get there is the boss and a young man. The youngster was actually wearing a suit, with tie and loafers and everything! That made one word appear in my head immediately – suck-up. And it hasn’t gone away since then.
Dear young Eetan is a recent graduate with the highest of clearances who has managed – through ruthless ass-kissing, no doubt – to land himself the job of secret creator of memory stones. Guess, who is responsible for teaching him everything he didn’t learn at orientation. Yeah, it’s me. Sigh. I’m no good with sticklers and I’m no good at teaching people who think of themselves as infallible. Eetan is both, that much I know already.
Oh, we’re going to have a lot of fun together. I just know it.
