Grampa did one last thing and Allen began to feel very strange.
His weight stayed the same but his hair grew long and he got a bit of a beard. His nose began to turn up
slightly and became rather bulbous. As his face rounded out he felt himself getting shorter ending up at a bit
over two and a half feet tall. His knuckles drug the floor and his size 14 feet were comically large.
Here climb into these. Grampa said. He gave Allen a set of over sized short overalls and helped him step into
them.
Why did you do this to me? Allen cried.
I enjoy the look.
But Grampa I don't like it.
Well you are going to be the new fixture in my garden. And at night you can enjoy life again once the clock
strikes midnight but just until dawn. Anyone you play with will become a troll too and soon I will have the
best garden in the town.
I think you are talking about Faries and Gnomes.
No trolls do the heavy work. Any girl that enters the garden at the time you are alive will become a Fairy as
will some of the boys. But there will be some Gnomes. I will have a whole garden full of creatures taking care
of my plants.
