A drawing of a winter scene, cut away to reveal what's underground. Below a green house and the snow covered backyard, a mole wearing gold glasses is digging it's way through the cold, hard dirt. The words "Folktale Week #5: Underground" surround the mole and it's tunnel.

Cartoon drawing, showing a close up of the mole. She comes to a halt, as several panels of wood suddenly block her path. The mole looks at the wood, thinking about what to do next.

While the mouse is trying to fall asleep, there's something happening deep under ground.
.
It's a mole, digging her way in an anxious rush. She find's that there is a house above her. Maybe someone will answer her call at this late hour?

Stars glow in the night sky outside, but we see them from inside a deep, dark cave. The boat, now very dull and unmagical, is beached down a hill outside the cave. The two fairy tale kids are at the mouth of the cave, looking in where the inky footprints lead deep into the darkness. The taller kid has used the inkbrush to draw in the book, and holds the book up: a sketch of the MOON, bright white and sparkling with blue magic, casts extremely bright light down into the cave for them to see by; the shadows are stark and sharp. A fancy scroll caption reads: "Our quarry has gone UNDERGROUND."

This was #5: "Underground." #FolkTaleWeekUnderground

“As the vizier's daughter was sauntering about, she stepped on an iron ring.
Taking hold of it, she pulled, and behold! it opened the door to an underground hallway,” Speak Bird Speak Again

Fairies usually live underground and this one has been discovered by a human to her misfortune.

The Mines of Moria are my underground today, but since I am terrible at painting environments you‘ll get Gimli instead 😉
