IRE 14 :: antecedants

Blog, Jvstin Style: IRE #14: Homo floresiensis

Our IRE this time around keys off of some new revelations about those mysterious "hobbit sized" skeletons found on an Indonesian island last year.


A deck of Trumps discovered hidden inside a book in the castle library. Not a large deck, but it includes the traditional unicorn backing. There is nothing traditional about the people revealed on the faces.

This turns out to be a deck left from:

Actually, I am quite surprised that the family is not much larger. The thirteen of us, plus two brothers and a sister I knew who were now dead, represent close to fifteen hundred years of parental production. There had been a few others also, of whom I had heard, long before us, who had not survived.

Frighteningly strange, these faces and bodies, almost born of nightmare...
