Hailey hands the pillow to Matilda and takes out another mug, “It’s a mug, with a picture of the rabbit in the moon. Another Fiona picture?” There is a note in the box which Aram reads out loud. “The reward I offered for the recovery and return of the mug went to the person who found it and turned it over to the police. But when I learned what you did to find those responsible, I knew that you deserved your own reward. First the pillow. It shows an even better than the mug the wonderful art created by six year old Fiona.” “The rabbit mug is my second favorite after the pandas. It has Fiona's initials on the bottom, quite rare, but if you are careful you can still use every day.” "From a grateful collector," Aran finishes. Hailey turned to Aram, “You knew this was coming!” Aram shrugged his shoulders and smiled.

So ends the panda mug case with Hailey and Aram engaged to be married. There can still be mysteries to be solved back at the mansion and elsewhere, and we might even drop in on a wedding ceremony. Thanks for your interest and patience. It has been a long trip since Hailey's arrival at the front door of the mansion! This is a time to mention that the story would not have taken place without the genius of the late StudiArtVartanian who's Aram character and perpetual bad hair day hair along with Nevil from the evil cousins and backstage Nick were so much of the foundation of the story . Also Maddelirium who created Hailey an amazingly versatile character who has become a real person to me while composing the story. But she also made Susan (Tough Girl), Emily and Ros. There is more of Hailey yet to be seen, and Aram, too. And of course BlueTreeStudio from which we have the amazingly detailed Modular Mansion, Modular Theater and Little Chipton. Also the scenes from the Raven's Perch pub. And as always, thanks for looking.
