Enter the Woods 11:12
11:12 Ivan dropped and Ivan rolled as he was flung out of the black hole hanging a few feet up from the ground. As soon as he was on his feet, he looked around. He had to take a hearty step to the left as Gwen and then Siobhan came flying out of the air. Lunging forward he was able…
Enter the Woods 11:11
11:11 The surface of the stone stairs didn’t seem that much of a problem for the first twenty or thirty steps. By the next twenty Kim started feeling it in the knees. Another thirty – no, really, another thirty and looking upwards it seemed there was a lot more where those came from – and her feet hurt too. She didn’t seem to be the only one feeling it…
Enter the Woods 11:10
11:10 Patti let out another piercing whistle. She wove Magick into it. Asked the sleepwalkers to come to her. But, even as she did so she felt resistance. Another Magick. And interwoven deep below the resistance was that damned tiny little subtle song she’d been hearing since entering the ballroom. Even as she stepped into place with the…
Enter the Woods 11:9
11:9 Before Patti moved two steps, Kim flung herself forward and shoved an arm in front of Patti, nearly clotheslining her. Patti turned to glower at Kim. “What?” “That’s not–” Kim stopped, frowned at the surface of the bridge, then continued, “stone. Or anything from the earth. Or anything at all.” Dan walked up beside Kim and…
Enter the Woods 11:8
11:8 It didn’t take that long to get from Lady’s Mary’s Home to the docks. Ourton just wasn’t that big. But, it was enough time for Prairie and Gwen to explain what happened in Spiritus and the warehouse and for Dempsey and Abe to give their own accounting of the time which amounted to a whole lot of staring at Prairie and…
Enter the Woods 11:7
11:7 “Honey, I’m home!” Gwen cried. Or didn’t cry. Or projected? “Hi.” Prairie’s voice came from everywhere and nowhere and then settled in a space next to Gwen. Gwen looked down and through her arm. Through her arm?! Gulp. Uh, did she gulp or say gulp or project gulp or— She wasn’t exactly sure she had a mouth. Or a face. Or– This was just bug nuts…
Enter the Woods 11:6
11:6 “Honey, I’m home!” Gwen threw the front door of Regan and Maise’s home – Manse? Mansion? Castle? – open and strode inside. Patti stuck her head over the threshold of the parlor, craning to look down the entry. “So soon?” Siobhan waved the sheaf of papers she still held tight in one hand. Nothing else was needed for…
Enter the Woods 11:5 part 2
11:5 Siobhan lowered the pages to her lap, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath. The depth of it was echoed from others around the tight circle. Silence was also a common. Pregnant silence speaking of sympathy born on shared trauma. Llora drew a ragged breath and then dashed her hand over her damp cheek. Siobhan looked around the circle. Gwen…
Enter the Woods 11 – Interlude – Bria
Bria It starts with shaky hands and progresses quickly to confused speech and general confusion. Bria has known what to look for all her life, just like she knew to never eat too much protein or become dehydrated. Like a doe that intrinsically knew to fear the hunter, who shies even when drinking delicately from…
Enter the Woods 11:5
11:5 The church hall door was propped open with a thick book, allowing the sound of voices to drift out to the stoop. Siobhan was about to open the door and head in when the sound of hurried footsteps came from behind them. The group as one pivoted to see who it was coming up fast on them. …
