It Just Rained

A rainbow arcs overhead, and there are creatures about in the sparkling evening sunlight and wet grass. There seems to be a strange damp trail winding along this old path under the rain drenched leaves of a bush.

At the end of this trail is a group of strange snails. In place of their shells they have a bottle of coloured ink.

They are Ink Snails. They are friends to writers and artists, happy to give their companions an endless supply of ink in return for love and care and food, of course. They are quite rare, only sometimes appearing when there is a rainbow in the sky.

But even rarer is the sparkling Ink Snail. No one knows when one of these will appear. Their ink shimmers and shines and it highly prised. There is nothing quite like it.

Now is the best chance to catch an Ink Snail. You can take just one, or a couple, or every single colour home, so long as you take good care of them.
