NOTES

Read by Jonathan Barker

Heavily inspired by the Brain Jacques "Redwall" series and *THAT* famous grasshopper scene in "A Bug's Life". It's time for an abused population to fight for their freedom. For humans, it's just an old cardboard box with school utensils. For the pencils inside the box, it is San Ford, a city where they were forced to live under the ruling thumb of the Erasers. This dominant minority, headed by Ink Earl, have held their power for too long. The self-named monarch commands brutal repressive actions against anyone who is caught conspiring or breaking the law. Dixon, Faber, and Prisma are just three of the many Pencils tired of the reigning tyranny in San Ford. But one day, the fear widespread by the cruel guards, the Markers, was no longer bigger than their wishes for rising. Dixon's prophetic dream reveals the existence of a powerful but dangerous weapon that could end pencils' suffering. Is a sure victory that could lead Dixon to an early end the one alternative for pencils?
