Cousin Mary was quite fragile in mind and body. She was now in a safe place and her body was healing every day. Good healthy food was helping to put weight back on her frame. The healing herbs mad into oil and cream was now bringing her skin and hair into a healthy glow. She also, with the friendship of Mary Meerschaum was starting to not be so withdrawn around people. First she felt comfort with the children especially Lola and John because she remembered them coming to her home where she helped protect them in Upper world.
Now she was in Middle World and all the people were here protecting her. Cristina had given Cousin Mary a amulet with a Dalmatian Jasper...also known as a Dalmatian Stone... wrapped with copper around a piece of braided twine.
Cristina told her that it was a stone that would help her to break down barriers that she had created as protection around herself when she was in Upper World. This stone allows you to move forward in life and discover your true purpose in life being here in Middle World. Cristina also told Mary that its energy will bring her childlike joy and and a sense of playfulness into her life.
“The black spots are Black Tourmaline, and so it also embodies the energy of this stone, and will aid you with spiritual grounding and psychic protection.” said Cristina gently.
Over the next few months Cousin Mary consulted with Queen Cristina telling her of what had happened up in the town where she had lived and it was quite hard even for Queen Cristina to keep a dry eye. They had truly rescued Cousin Mary in the nick of time because Queen Cristina and her granddaughter Princes Cristina had a crystal ball reading the night after Cousin Mary was brought down to Middle World. In the reading Cousin Mary's home was torched and burnt totally to the ground. The local newspapers could not find Mary's body but they naturally assumed she had perished in the fire. The two of them decided to not tell Mary but if she ever wished to return to Upper World they would tell her the home was gone.
John, Mary Meerschaum's charge, asked Cristina's parents if he could move to a small building on their property so that Cousin Mary could have his room.
Elvin and Star told him now that their only child Cristina was all grown up with children to tend to with the help of Gabi they needed a youngster in their extra room and that he would be most welcome to stay.
John said he would talk to Queen Cristina first then accept their offer. He then went directly to the Queen and asked her if he could make an appointment to see her. With a smile on her face she told John she was free right at this moment and they could go into her kitchen and have coffee and a nice molasses cookie after their talk.
“Well, Queen Cristina this is quite an important request I have. Since I came here from Upper World as an orphan I have grown quite a lot in my thinking and self worth. I have many friends here and when we get together they ask me why I do not have my own last name. I try to tell them I went by grandmother Mary Meerschaum's last name because I did not know who my birth father's name was. I understand the children who live here are quite naive about all the horror and badness that goes on up there and I do not know how to explain to them why I do not have my own last name. This is why I wish to ask you if I could have the last name of Snow~Wolfe as my own name. Some day when Lola and I grow up we wish to be married and I would be pleased to give her the last name of Snow~Wolfe.” said John.
“John you are at the age of nine and you are very mature so I am thinking that your request is quite valid so I will give you this sealed document with the name John Snow~Wolfe as your legal name right now.”said the Queen.
She sat at her desk writing the name out then put on the official red seal.
She then told John to take it to Elvin and Star Brite and they would make a frame for him in a few days.
John told the Queen that he would be staying there as he had given his room to Cousin Mary.
“Now Lola will have two ladies to guide her into adulthood.” said John as he reached for another molasses cookie.
My oh my what a remarkable young man he is growing up to be. thought Queen Cristina.
