Melville is questing! Episode 1/25

Melville and his friend, Charlie, take their time strolling through town, discussing their plans for the upcoming weekend when a strange cloud starts to roll up the street.

Melville is questing! Episode 2/25

Very quickly the strange cloud engulfs Charlie. Melville panics, not knowing what to do. Call for help? Squawk? Run in circles? Press a non-existent panic button? All too soon the cloud swallows Melville as well.

Melville is questing! Episode 3/25

Melville and Charlie find themselves transported into a small room filled with musical instruments! Despite their strange transportation, the oddest thing of all is their disturbance of the various instruments made no sound at all!

Melville and Charlie jump as a cockatoo comes flying into the room, silently landing on a nearby drum set. The cockatoo starts to squawk, or chirp, or something, but no sound can be heard. Melville opens his mouth to speak, finding his own voice is gone!

Melville is questing! Episode 4/25

Another new comer! A strangely clothed animal with an instrument comes into the room, mouth opening and closing again with no sound to be heard.

Charlie starts to silently knock their paw on the floor in a rhythmic pattern, asking Melville what they are all talking about. Melville responds with his own silent knocking, letting his friend know he is just as lost.

The cockatoo and musician look at each other in dismay, when suddenly the musician starts moving around erratically, trying to tell their story.

Melville is questing! Episode 5/25

Between knocks and charades, Melville and Charlie have discovered the cockatoo (who they now know is named Catherine, or Cat, for short) is a magician who cast a spell to summon the "Legendary Saviors" to help return sound to their world. Melville and Charlie try to explain they're no Legendary Saviors, but neither Cat nor the musician known as "Bardle the Bard", would believe them!

Melville sighs in exasperation and he and his friend are shoved into a vehicle along with Cat and Bardle to set off on an adventure neither of them even agreed to!

Melville is questing! Episode 6/25

As they drive along, Cat uses the rhythmic knocking she entirely and unbelievably too quickly learned from Charlie to better explain what they are searching to find.

"--- ..-. / -.-. --- ..- .-. ... .," Melville knocks to Charlie, "-- -.-- ... - .. -.-. .- .-.. --..-- / -- .- --. .. -.-. .- .-.. / -- ..- ... .. -.-. / -. --- - . ... .-.-.- / .... --- .-- / --- -... ...- .. --- ..- ... .-.-.-"

Melville is questing! Episode 7/25

Charlie signals for Bardle to pull over, jumping quickly from the vehicle. Melville looks around not understanding where they are or what Charlie is doing.

Charlie places their ear to the ground, perking up and turning to Melville, knocking fervently, "- .... . .-. . .----. ... / ... --- -- . - .... .. -. --. / .... . .-. . .-.-.- / .. / -.-. .- -. / ..-. . . .-.. / .. - .-.-.-"

A much-too-excited Cat and Bardle race out from the vehicle, leaving Melville little choice but to follow.

Melville is questing! Episode 8/25

Standing at the base of a mountain made out of.. candy? Cat quickly explains how the Notes can be located through sound, or in the current case, the vibrations of sound.

Melville finds Cat entirely too smug about her abilities as a magician, claiming all their previous arguments to the two newcomers not being Legendary Saviors has now been proven false by Charlie's ability to feel the vibrations.

Melville sighs, giving up trying to convince their crazy petnappers to see reality. At least Charlie seems to be having fun.

Melville is questing! Episode 9/25

Following Charlie's ability to feel the vibrations of the Notes, the ragtag group make their way up the (slightly sticky) mountainside.

"--- .... / -. --- -.-.-- / -- -.-- / .... .- - -.-.--" Cat knocks fervently as a strong breeze rips her head covering away.

Slipping and sliding across suspicious damp jellybeans, Charlie leads them to a bundle of cotton candy bushes, where the first missing Note has found itself stuck.

Melville is questing! Episode 10/25

With the first Note in Cat's hands (er, wings), Bardle decides the best way down the candy mountain isn't the way they came, but a series of lilac waterfalls. Melville's knocking objections are ignored as Bardle jumps into the tumbling water.

Melville is questing! Episode 11/25

Melville finds himself in disbelief as their journey down the waterfalls resulted in no harm to anypet. But his relief is short-lived as he finds himself being dragged down further to the depths of the small lake in which they landed.

Melville sighs inwardly, knowing it's useless to fight the current dragging them along, finding himself wishing he and Charlie had stayed home instead of going for a walk.

Melville is questing! Episode 12/25

The unforgiving current delivers Melville and his companions to the mouth of an underwater cave. Charlie quickly alerts the others to the feel of more vibrations, leading them further into the dark, damp cave. Cat and Bardle share in silent excited shouting and dancing as Charlie successfully discovers a second Note.

Melville is questing! Episode 13/25

Melville tosses his head back, letting out a silent frustrated yell as they continue to walk in circles around the underwater cave. Bardle insisted on leading them out, but Melville swears he's seen that same stalagmite five times now.

Ready to try arguing for someone else to lead, Melville finds himself once again surprised as they enter a new section of the cave, finding a small ray of light and a large number of hanging vines.

"- --- .-.. -.. / -.-- --- ..- / .. / -.- -. . .-- / - .... . / .-- .- -.-- / --- ..- - -.-.--" Bardle knocks on his instrument.

Melville is questing! Episode 14/25

Climbing the mass of vines out of the cave, Melville yelps silently in alarm as the cave falls away below them, the vines lifting their group high into the sky. The others seem either unaware of their predicament, or simply don't care, as Charlie finds another Note tangled within the vines.

Melville is questing! Episode 15/25

Questioning why he's here at all (what with Charlie being able to find these missing notes all on their own), Melville is forced back into reality as he feels the tension on the vines snap silently away. One by one the vines are ripped from their supports, sending Melville and his companions freefalling through the sky.

Melville is questing! Episode 16/25

Melville is surprised for the entirely-too-many-inth time, when a floating island happens to pass by at the exact right moment to catch him and his companions. Bardle starts moving his mouth fervently, his arms flailing as everyone stares at his silent rant in confusion.

Melville is questing! Episode 17/25

Not waiting to explain himself in a manner the others would understand, Bardle races toward the edge of the floating island. A silent collective gasp is given as Bardle leaps to a smaller island passing by - another Note and Cat's missing hat waiting for him. Melville closes his eyes, giving a silent prayer to whomever may be listening, before leaping across after the others.

Melville is questing! Episode 18/25

Melville silently wonders how many more of these Notes they need to find, regretting not paying more attention when Cat was explaining things in the vehicle. Slowly the floating island meanders its way to some waterfalls.

How any waterfalls managed to form high up in the sky away from any visible land or water source Melville can't fathom. But seeing as it's the only other land-ish structure around, they jump across one by one.

Melville is questing! Episode 19/25

Trying not to slip on the wet stones of the bizarre floating waterfalls, Melville watches as the others discuss possible ways of escaping their current predicament to continue their search.

Cat knocks, telling there is only one Note remaining to be found. Once located all five Notes must be returned to their pedestals for the magic to work properly.

Melville finds himself sighing again, missing his home and bed, when something within the falling water catches his eye.

Melville is questing! Episode 20/25

Melville grasps frantically as the final missing Note rushes down the water. Losing his balance, Melville silently splashes into the water, being swept away with the Note.

Charlie quickly dives from their safe perch after Melville, Cat and Bardle following after. One by one they drop from the bottom of the waterfalls, and into a thick mysterious cloud materializing below them.

Melville is questing! Episode 21/25

With multiple silent thumps, Melville and his companions drop one by one out of the mysterious cloud and onto a frosty hillside. Miraculously Charlie managed to grab the final Note before entering the cloud.

Cat knocks excitedly on one of the pillars staggered around the hillside, urging them to place the found Notes onto the pedestals.

Melville is questing! Episode 22/25

As the final Note is placed on its pedestal, a small whirlwind envelopes Melville and his companions, quickly spreading out beyond Melville's field of vision. Bardle falling over with a loud yelp! is all the proof they need to know sound has been restored.

Melville looks over at Cat and speaks, finding the sound of his voice strange to his ears, "Does this mean we get to go home now?"

Melville is questing! Episode 23/25

Much to Melville's dismay, but to Charlie's amusement, Cat and Bardle throw a parade in honour of their "Legendary Saviors". Not bothering to question who picked up the vehicle they abandoned at the mountain side, Melville did his best to remain stoically quiet through the parade, knowing a celebration to this degree must have been planned far ahead of time.

Melville is questing! Episode 24/25

Though his groan was drowned out by the volume of Bardle's voice, Melville's face displayed all his anguish at having to sit through Bardle's very poorly written (and even more poorly sung) rendition of "The Grand Adventure of the Legendary Saviors".

Charlie chuckled quietly, knocking their paw at Melville. ".-. . .-.. .- -..- --..-- / -.-. .- - / ... .- .. -.. / .-- . / -.-. .- -. / --. --- / .... --- -- . / .- ..-. - . .-. / -... .- .-. -.. .-.. . / .. ... / ..-. .. -. .. ... .... . -.. .-.-.-"

".-- .. .-.. .-.. / .... . / . ...- . .-. / ..-. .. -. .. ... .... ..--.." Melville knocked back, groaning again as Bardle began his 78th verse.

Melville is questing! Episode 25/25

"... . . ..--.. / - .... .- - / .-- .- ... -. .----. - / ... --- / -... .- -.." Charlie knocked to Melville several hours later, a sack of gold by his side. ".-- . / --. --- - / ... --- -- . / ..-. ..- -. --..-- / ... --- -- . / . -..- . .-. -.-. .. ... . --..-- / .- -. / .- -.. ...- . -. - ..- .-. . --..-- / .- -. -.. / ... --- -- . / --. --- .-.. -.. -.-.--"

".. / -. . ...- . .-. / .-- .- -. - / - --- / --. --- / --- -. / .- -. / .- -.. ...- . -. - ..- .-. . / .- --. .- .. -." Melville responded before walking through the portal Cat conjured for them.

Charlie began knocking frantically as soon as they crossed through the portal, Melville didn't wait for them to finish before turning around to shout at Cat - finding himself a moment too late. The portal vanished as Melville angrily shouted "This isn't home!"
