Description It was said that giants once roamed these lands, centuries ago, in a time now lost to stories and legends. Most scoff at these tales, dismissing them as the fantasies of an addled mind insisting that: 'the only giants to be seen in Glornarlyn were giants of mud and grass.' No one knows where they came from, these giants in the mud, but for as long as the oldest mind in Glornarlyn could recall, they had always been there. They were everywhere in fact, in the fields, the forests, and even half buried in streams. Wherever one went, they were sure to come across one. Strange figures they were, and not a one of them the same. The truth of the figures long forgotten....... That is until now, because, now, they are waking up.

Wow I just googled that place and it looks amazing! I hope to be able to go there someday ^^ this reminded me of a song talking about hills of Lapland, according to which they are giants that were killed by the ice age. These stories just makes one wonder!

Thank you! Ever since I heard about 'mud heads' on a gardening show and googled them (which mostly brought up pictures of the Lost Gardens), I've wanted to do a fantasy painting around that concept. Couldn't resist writing a short story/paragraph to give the piece more atmosphere and world building.

A story always brings more meaning to a piece! I think it's a good habit ^^
