The Hollyphant: A Most Mild-Mannered Mastodon


'Tis rare to find, dear reader, a creature of such benevolent countenance as the noble hollyphant. The only wrinkle with the fine beast I have found is 'pon its leathery hide!


(On the topic of the wrinkled skins - other angelic forms in Mount Celestia are gigantic, so mayhaps this skin will tighten when the hollyphant engorges in celestial size? Ah, 'tis but an errant wondering.)


Whilst conversing with one of their breed, Lulu, I learnt that the hollyphant averts its wants from mortal vice at all cost, and has an indefatigably buoyant and cherry view of the moral planes. I could not bring myself to quash these imaginings of our realm, and only hope we one day rise to this creature's conception of our kind.
