Ola - found after many years Ettariel’s sister. Colorful and energetic. Tells the best jokes in the world. Fan of cabarets.
Asia - godfairy. (Like a Fairy Godmother, only better.) Good spirit of the Morpions. Still water.
Cracovian Sabbath:
Bastet - the dentist (trufax). Now studying weird things about weird people. Shares the apartment with the author, so can’t be exactly sane. Has the best memory for citing possible. Very fond of the technique du tac-au-tac (though doesn’t know the word).
Jod - author’s daughter. Philosphy student. Likes to ask tough questions and analyse theoretical problems. Has a thing for bad movies and texts and seems to find some good motifs in every crap.
Kasia - mathematician. Gesticulates a lot. Speaks, learns and teaches japanese. Loves manga and anime.
Arien - author’s mother. Finished Classic Philology and survived. Was published in an anthology. Still water as well.
Ireth - author’s granddaughter. Going through this tough period of being a teenager. Sometimes pretty hilarious. Texts the author every day.
(I’m sure you’ve grasped that, but I’ll say it anyway: obviously, only the “Team Silesia” is my real family. Though my friends are like family to me too.)
