Clerrip's Discovery

Clerrip discovers the Teerlaghie maps in the archiveDrop cap One day a young Weepeep named Clerrip was toiling in the village archive. Clerrip discovered an ancient book, covered with dust and long forgotten by all living Weepeeps. The words and maps in the ancient book contained a remarkable discovery. One of the estates on the great mountain, called Teerlaghie, belonged to the Weepeeps!

The ancient book described Teerlaghie as a magical land, with flower-covered hillsides, babbling streams, noble forests, friendly wildland birds and creatures, and majestic views of the Weepeep village and valley.

Clerrip was very excited about this important discovery. The Weepeeps had always believed that all of the great mountain belonged to the ferocious Sloggrr and his henchmen. But now the Weepeeps, too, had an ancient birthright on the great mountain, a magical land where they might enjoy the fields and flowers, and rest from their daily toil.

Clerrip ran straight away to the Council of the Weepeeps with his thrilling news.
