Magical Gnomes and Mood Room Gnomes.

3
0:0:09,000->0:0:15,000
This is an introduction to the Magical Gnomes.

4
0:0:24,000->0:0:28,500
Magical Gnomes have special magical powers.

5
0:0:28,750->0:0:32,500
They visit you while you are sleeping.

6 
0:0:32,750->0:0:34,500
And, leave gifts that you are thinking of.

7
0:0:34,750->0:0:37,000
They are friends with the murrels.

8
0:0:38,000->0:0:40,750
The murrels are ancient cousins of moles and squirrels.

9
0:0:41,000->0:0:44,750
Magical Gnomes live in special floating villages,

10
0:0:45,000->0:0:47,000
pulled by flying horses.

11 
0:0:47,250->0:0:50,875
Magical Gnomes travel in carriages, pulled by flying horses.

12
0:0:51,000->0:0:56,500
Magical Gnomes use secret doors to enter murrel villages -

13
0:0:57,000->0:1:01,875
fence posts, trees, ponds, holes, mailboxes.

14
0:1:02,000->0:1:04,500
No one ever knows or suspects.

15
0:1:04,750->0:07,000
In the redwood forests 

16
0:1:07,125->0:1:12,750
Magical Gnomes are protected by sorels and fairy bells.

17
0:1:13,000->0:1:18,000
Magical Gnomes are cousins of the Mood Room Gnomes.

18
0:1:18,500->0:1:21,500
Magical Gnomes are attracted to gardens and yards

19
0:1:21,750->0:1:28,500
by special objects - mushrooms, Gnome Houses, Gnome Stones,

20
0:1:28,750->0:1:33,750
flowers, such as: foxgloves and hollyhocks.

21
0:1:34,000->0:1:38,500
Magical Gnomes take on features from places visited.

22
0:1:39,000->0:1:44,500
Magical Gnomes have Gnome Stones.

23
0:1:46,000->0:1:50,750
Chapter 1: The Ancient History of the Magical Gnomes.

24
0:1:51,000->0:1:55,000
Many, many years ago, there was a Magical Age.

25
0:1:55,125->0:1:57,750
when the world was occupied by humans 

26
0:1:58,000->0:2:01,875
and a magical people called the Gnomes.

27
0:2:02,000->0:2:04,875
The Gnomes loved each other and loved the humans.

28
0:2:05,000->0:2:08,000
And the humans loved the Gnomes.

29
0:2:08,250->0:2:11,250
That was the time when Gnomes lived on Earth,

30
0:2:11,500->0:2:15,500
side by side with the humans.

31
0:2:16,000->0:2:19,000
The Gnomes tended horses, wrote poetry,

32
0:2:19,125->0:2:22,000
and sang songs for the humans.

33
0:2:22,125->02:26,875
Then, one day a human king grew jealous of the Gnomes.

34
0:2:27,000->0:2:29,500
Because the human king thought the humans loved

35
0:2:29,750->0:2:32,000
the Gnomes more than the human king.

36
0:2:32,125->0:2:35,000
So, the human king arranged a special dinner 

37
0:2:35,125->0:2:38,125
for the Gnome king and queen.

38
0:2:38,500->0:2:41,500
The human king ordered the guards to arrest

39
0:2:41,625->0:2:44,000
the Gnome king and queen.

40
0:2:44,125->0:2:46,125
And keep them high in a tower.

41
0:2:46,375->0:2:48,500
It was not long before the humans wondered

42
0:2:48,875->0:2:50,250
what happened to the Gnome king and queen.

43
0:2:50,375->0:2:52,750
And why the Gnome king and queen 

44
0:2:52,825->0:2:55,000
were not visiting the humans.

45
0:2:55,125->0:2:57,875
The Gnomes also wondered what had happened

46
0:2:58,000->0:3:0,000
to the Gnome king and queen.

47
0:3:0,125->0:3:1,250
A year passed.

48
0:3:1,500->0:3:5,500
And still no one had seen the Gnome king and queen.

49
0:3:5,875->0:3:8,875
Then one day, the first flying horse was born.

50
0:3:9,00->0:3:11,500
And born on a Gnome farm.

51
0:3:11,675->0:3:14,000
The Gnomes learned to ride the flying horse.

52
0:3:14,250->0:3:17,500
And taught the horse to pull carriages through the sky.

53
0:3:17,875->0:3:22,125
On one of the flying rides, a Gnome flew near the prison tower

54
0:3:22,250->0:3:24,875
and spotted the Gnome king and queen.

55
0:3:25,000->0:3:29,500
Soon, several more flying horses were born on Gnome farms.

56
0:3:29,750->0:3:32,500
When the Gnomes had a herd of flying horses,

57
0:3:32,750->0:3:34,875
The Gnomes rescued their king and queen,

58
0:3:35,00->0:3:39,500
and used flying horses to pull their village farms into the sky.

59
0:3:39,875->0:3:42,875
So high into the sky,

60
0:3:43,000->0:3:47,000
that the daytime and nighttime are reversed.

61
0:3:47,125->0:3:49,125
And, that is the history, 

62
0:3:49,250->0:3:53,000
the ancient history of the Magical Gnomes.

63
0:3:54,125->0:3:57,000
Chapter 2 - Mood Room Gnomes

64
0:3:57,125->0:4:01,000
Mood Room Gnomes are not always easy to spot.

65
0:4:01,125->0:4:04,750
Some are quite small - only an inch two in height.

66
0:4:05,000->0:4:08,000
Others have been known to grow 2 feet tall !

67
0:4:09,000->0:4:12,500
Mood Room Gnomes slip into a room

68
0:4:12,750->0:4:15,875
or are invited to stay awhile.

69
0:4:16,000->0:4:19,000
However a Mood Room Gnome comes to a room 

70
0:4:19,125->0:4:21,375
he is there to make the room

71
0:4:21,500->0:4:24,750
happy, peaceful and prosperous.

72
0:4:25,000->0:4:29,750
Mood Room Gnomes happify a room with various techniques.

73
0:4:30,000->0:4:33,500
such as: changing colors, making funny faces,

74
0:4:34,00->0:4:38,000
funny poses, or changing shapes or sizes.

75
0:4:38,125->0:4:41,000
One may not notice the Mood Room Gnome 

76
0:4:41,125->0:4:44,000
for days or weeks or months.

77
0:4:44,125->0:4:46,750
There are cases of Mood Room Gnomes 

78
0:4:46,875->0:4:50,500
going unnoticed for 10 years !

79
0:4:51,000->0:4:53,750
Mood Room Gnomes will stay in a room

80
0:4:54,000->0:4:59,750
as long as needed to ensure the occupants are happy.

81
0:5:0,000->0:5:06,000
Mood Room Gnomes are attracted to Gnome Stones.

82
0:5:07,000->0:5:12,500
Chapter 3 - A Magical Gnome takes a trip.

83
0:5:13,000->0:5:15,500
It was a fine day in the redwood forest !

84
0:5:15,750->0:5:17,750
A Magical Gnome decided to visit 

85
0:5:17,875->0:5:21,000
a cousin Mood Room Gnome, a few miles away.

86
0:5:22,000->0:5:25,250
With a sniff and a puff, he was off !

87
0:5:25,500->0:5:28,000
His journey followed a windy path 

88
0:5:28,125->0:5:30,250
alongside the Fern Creek 

89
0:5:30,500->0:5:34,000
through the cathedral groves of redwood trees.

90
0:5:34,125->0:5:37,000
About 30 minutes into the sojourn,

91
0:5:37,125->0:5:41,250
The little Gnome noticed a rustle here and there.

92
0:5:41,500->0:5:43,500
But, there was no one to be seen.

93
0:5:43,750->0:5:46,125
He called, “Who goes there?”

94
0:5:46,250->0:5:48,250
No answer was returned.

95
0:5:48,375->0:5:51,250
He hurried around a bend and hid under the sorrel.

96
0:5:51,500->0:5:53,875
The rustling stopped.

97
0:5:54,000->0:5:56,500
The little Gnome could hear breathing nearby

98
0:5:56,750->0:5:59,000
and knew he was being followed.

99
0:5:59,125->0:6:01,500
He knew that he need to make a fast break.

100
0:6:01,625->0:6:03,875
The little gnome prepared himself.

101
0:6:04,000->0:6:08,000
Then ran as fast as he could to a nearby tree.

102
0:6:08,125->0:6:10,000
He reached out his trusty hand.

103
0:6:10,125->0:6:12,000
And, the elevator grip carried him to safety

104
0:6:12,125->0:6:14,125
high into the redwood tree.

105
0:6:14,250->0:6:16,250
The little gnome watched for an hour,

106
0:6:16,375->0:6:18,125
perched high in the tree.

107
0:6:18,250->0:6:21,250
No sign of bear, lion or wolf.

108
0:6:21,375->0:6:23,375
Finally, the pursuer went away

109
0:6:23,500->0:6:27,500
under the cover of ferns, never to be seen.

110
0:6:28,000->0:6:30,125
When all seemed safe, the little gnome

111
0:6:30,250->0:6:32,375
headed down the tree and went home 

112
0:6:32,500->0:6:38,000
of the Ridge Trail, instead of the Fern Creek Trail.

113
0:6:38,125->0:6:41,000
He went to the doctor to look at his hand

114
0:6:41,125->0:6:43,750
injured from racing up the redwood tree.

115
0:6:43,825->0:6:45,500
The little gnome was happy, healthy and home,

116
0:6:45,750->0:6:47,500
and looked forward to another day 

117
0:6:47,825->0:6:49,925
to visit his Mood Room cousin.

118
0:6,50,000->0:6:52,000
Suddenly, a knock on the door !

119
0:6:52,125->0:6:54,000
It was his cousin !

120
0:6:54,125->0:6:56,875
They were happy to see each other.

121
0:6:57,000->0:6:59,500
The Magical Gnome told the story of 

122
0:6:59,625->0:7:01,750
his trip through the forest and

123
0:7:01,825->0:7:03,825
encounter with an unknown pursuer.

124
0:7:03,925->0:7:06,425
The Mood Room Gnome said that 

125
0:7:06,500->0:7:08,925
the he was the pursuer.

126
0:7:09,000->0:7:11,475
He had been taking the Ridge Trail

127
0:7:11,500->0:7:14,000
to visit his cousin, the Magical Gnome.

128
0:7:14,125->0:7:17,125
And, spotted his cousin on the Fern Creek Trail.

129
0:7:17,250->0:7:20,000
He ran down the hill as fast as possible.

130
0:7:20,125->0:7:23,000
And, was so out of breath to answer

131
0:7:23,125->0:7:27,000
when he heard, “Who goes there ?”

132
0:7:27,125->0:7:30,000
Then, he could not find the Magical Gnome.

133
0:7:30,125->0:7:32,125
And, waited for some time

134
0:7:32,250->0:7:34,500
for a sound of the Magical Gnome.

135
0:7:34,625->0:7:37,500
But, no sound ever came.

136
0:7:38,000->0:7:41,000
So, he headed along the Fern Creek Trail

137
0:7:41,125->0:7:43,250
to the Magical Gnome village.

138
0:7:43,375->0:7:46,750
And, waited for his cousin to return home.

139
0:7:46,875->0:7:49,875
And, here they are happy and healthy 

140
0:7:50,000->0:7:53,125
and in each other’s company !

141
0:7:53,250->0:7:56,250
And that is the story of 

142
0:7:56,475->0:8:00,125
the Magical Gnome who took a trip.
