The Wickywock and the JubJub Berry

Synopsis

In a woodland glade, an exhausted mythical creature is suffering from insomnia. When a small, verbose forest sprite appears and offers a sedative, it sounds like a perfect solution, but the fatigued Wickywock is too impatient to heed the Sprite’s terms.

Santo is a respected religious clockmaker and moneylender in his village. He exploits families in debt by using charm and kindness.
