    Courage! That’s the word I was trying to think of! I said brave, which is perfect too, but I KNEW there was a word beginning with c that meant bravery. 😉 Over and out 😉

    It’s wonderful how independent Jean, Adi and Venus are. They are such cool characters, going out and investigating, going undercover and launching this rescue mission. They are so inspiring. It’s brilliant because a lot of the time when you have a story with undercover spy missions, they are organised by some sort of organization, but these kids don’t need telling what to do, they are free from corruption and they just go for it! They show initiative, and confidence and they are really brave. They aren’t fooled by authority and their lies.

    Speaking of which, I am shocked by all the terrible things revealed in this story! My goodness. It’s always a surprise in this day and age to actually be surprised by terrible things, but I am. I am so disappointed to find that all of this greed is hiding behind the mask of “conservation” and they are actually in league with the fishermen! Incredible! Extraordinary.

    I look forward to reading the conclusion of this story in the near future. Best wishes to you and Miranda.

    Love, Elvis

      Thank you so much for your long, comprehensive feedback, it makes me so happy. The things this story reveals are awful. When I started it I was just thinking “keeping animals in prison is wrong” but I didn’t know the half of it. I’ve found all these things out in my story research and once you know them you think “Of course! It’s obvious now! These are just profit-making companies like any other. They want to make as much money as possible and to do that they need to make it as appealing as possible to the public. That’s why they call it “conservation” because in this day and age they know that most people would not knowingly contribute to animal exploitation, wild-capture and confinement for the sake of entertainment. We just need to lift the veil so that everyone can see it 🙂 Thanks again Elvis, great to have you back 😀

        Absolutely – when you see these meat companies which say their meat is humane and free range and things, you can see their thinking. You can see that they’ve thought it out, and realised: “I don’t have to out run the bear. I just have to out run you.” Because the entire meat industry is so terrible and cruel and despicable, in order to be “humane” they just have to be a tiny bit less despicable than the others, they don’t have to stop being terrible at all.

        Your story is a brilliant one, and I look forward to reading the end!

        I am very concerned that Venus will be trapped in that basement forever! Or will she???
        Beautiful illustrations as always, my dear. Top notch 😉 😀 Riveting!
