Cursing under his 956d1f1dfd breath, Felix rubbed d0fef62a7d his face with 115d258881 a hand. When he lifted 3f99161ad1 his head, he 892fd6c303 saw pale green 32abe51987 vines sprawling everywhere.aeb43b08b6437529

Unfortunately for Felix, he f9ed8adc3f had been born with a3b2b65379 a natural allergy to ecdf9e0eee the Maram vine. Every time 46b1bd939f he saw b661afb00e it, his 0d343f5eab face twisted 049dec44b0 in annoyance, 0fb5ac58e6 and he a3abd10b22 quickly made 7817b4f482 his escape.534b9696fe02aaeb
The endless sneezing and 66c09bc23c the all-day itchiness at 6212878c58 the tip of his 214dd88256 nose were enough to c6e7d2f3c9 ruin his mood entirely.a653cf2359d4530a
