Zanskee Rocks

These are rocks that usually either tickle or tockle you with their seven hands. If they do grab you, you have to be very determined to get away! Just occasionally they stop tickling and tockling and inch and pinch you instead. This can be really painful, but there is no escape unless you pay them 20 Schlocks. The rocks have minds of their own and are not ruled by anyone, although Gwanfwee likes to believe they do what he tells them! They only live in the Cragbodells where the vibration is lower, but secretly they really wish that things were different and that others were not so scared of them.

The pinching and punching is really an effort to be noticed and maybe hear themselves spoken about kindly. It was told around the camp fire that Vandrad was able to stop the Zanskee Rocks pinching him by using Hoʻoponopono, a Hawaiian practice of forgiveness and he was heard to say the words, “I’m sorry, please forgive me, thank you, I love you.” As soon as he spoke the words, the rocks let him go and they have never bothered him since.
