haunted

Stiff limbs carried the young, pregnant girl away of her hidden temporary den and through the mucky swamplands. With a feast approaching, the young girl wanted to make skull centerpieces in offering. Food or drink were probably preferred, but the mere thought caused her already twisted stomach to turn even more.

With the skulls of small animals nestled in her satchel and the vines from different plants collected to act as the binding as well as various sticks, pieces of antler, other bones, jars, and flowers, she would begin to braid the vines together to create a stronger cord with her dexterous, but fumbling, toes. With braided cording neatly laid out as well as other piles of other baubles, widow would begin to build and construct various center pieces to adorn the meal.
