A Haunting We Will Go

Circe swept through the forest with the air of a woman who had seen far scarier things than the silly spooks and haunts of the forest. Where the young or naive might have seen reaching fingers and leering faces, Circe saw branches and tree hollows. It was hard to deceive one who usually did the deceiving. She was used to playing on the fears and hopes of others so she couldn't not see through the natural things that might otherwise unnerve her. The giantess wasn't immune to alarm, but she'd built up quite a tolerance for it over the years. Circe was "braving" the spooky forest because she'd heard from a reliable source that this was a place to find a rare plant with some rather interesting properties. Jewelweed, usually known for its soothing abilities, also had a bit of a reputation for its undesirable side effects. Those effects were exactly why she was looking for it. She paused to nose around a patch of heavily filtered sunlight. From experience she knew jewelweed preferred shade, but in a place like this where everything was in the shade Circe thought her best bet was to kick through the relatively sunny patches. |
