The Wilderfellian rebels, who call themselves the &#8220;Mother&#8217;s Favorites,&#8221; were arrested last week for breaking into the Mother Tree&#8217;s sanctuary. A one-of-a-kind Lii Flower was reported missing, and the Mother&#8217;s caretakers report that a new one has not yet begun to grow. Experts claim that the sacred tree suffers anxiety and distress from missing any of Idenau&#8217;s plants at a given time, but estimate that she will make a full recovery.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We were making a statement,&#8221; said the leader of the faction. &#8220;All the mother&#8217;s children belong out in the world, not stuck up where the elders can control them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And that goes for us too,&#8221; he added. &#8220;Can we come out now?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Connections between the Lii Flower and the love potion used by Lord Tiberius Sk\u00e4rva the Fourth in his most recent scheme are being investigated. While a few of Wilderfall&#8217;s guards claim to have seen some of Sk\u00e4rva&#8217;s minions asking about the rare flower on the very day of the crime, they were reportedly turned away without incident.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Besides, those guys couldn&#8217;t steal the leaves off a tree in autumn,&#8221; said one guard. &#8220;Although the dead lady was scary. She yelled at me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Any connection between\u00a0Sk\u00e4rva&#8217;s forces and the Lii incident remain unsubstantiated. For their part, the Mother&#8217;s Favorites refuse to talk.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yeah, maybe we have friends out in the world,&#8221; said the group&#8217;s leader, &#8220;people who share our cause and are gonna take it far beyond Wilderfall. And if so, well? We&#8217;re not about to rat them out.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LAURA SYKES reporting for THE ROYAL COURIER A group of young plants find themselves rooted to the spot in Wilderfall&#8217;s little-used prison.
