savannah liked to make her way back home through the woods whenever she could, the woods at dawn was a particularly enchanting place, silence wasnât nearly as anxiety inducing for her there, the chirping of birds and whistle of the wind was a dull but pleasant melody to her ears. besides she always took any opportunity to delay getting home. home. it was such an odd word. the home she most associated with was the one she had grown up in although it didnât have the staples of a home and yet the apartment she was currently occupying felt decidedly temporary. if she could have she might have stayed overnight in her bakery instead. as it was she took her joy where she could get it and leisurely walked through the woods on her way home, the evergrowing list of tasks to occupy her growing. sweeping. putting back the dishes. watering the plants. none all that pressing, mind you but nights were always hardest when she was alone with her thoughts, sometimes keeping herself busy was the best way to prevent a slip.
she was so caught up in her own thoughts that by the time she had made her way to the benches that lined the forest she hadnât caught sight of the silhouette, jumping back as it spoke. she thought wildly for a second that maybe sheâd imagined it but then it became obvious there was a person sat there, flesh and bone and alive, no ghost at all and she laughed a little at herself. pleasance had a way of making the most outlandish conclusions seem almost natural. now that she had noticed them though, she noticed everything else all at once, hit with the smell of alcohol, diluted but there nonetheless and she found herself recoiling instinctively. âhexing sounds a little extreme. unless youâre some woodland fairy and i am trespassing. do fairies drink vodka though? that might explain the constantly chirpy sparkly vibe.â she responded, furrowing her brows at the thought. the threat hadnât sounded as menacing as she was sure the stranger had intended it to but still she hoped her jokes wouldnât offend too much.
hazel irises , shamrock green with flecks of carrot orange and azure , DISAPPEAR behind eyelids as they flutter shut and arabella inhales the chilly nightâs air into their lungs. better than any menthol cigarette. she keeps her eyes closed as she RELAXES into the soft green grass , everything that resided in the grove seemed to thrive lush and strong , as she listens closely to the wind blowing through the trees. the sounds of NATURE were some of the witchâs favorite: the pitter-patter of rain fall , the chirping of crickets , the crunch of fallen leaves , running river water , and always the wind. some , maybe most , would consider the woods and especially the GROVE to be eerie after dark , but the wiccan took some strange solace there. surely one would much prefer the comfort of their home to the company of WOODLAND spirits , only ella felt far less alone resting between the giant sequoias than they did in the empty rooms of her old home.
some deep , secret part of her enjoyed the accidental FRIGHT she had given the beautiful blonde woman and wondered at her purpose in the woods at this hour. arabella turned her head in the direction of the other , eyes traveling over her almost ASSESSING her , â itâs only an extreme if you donât know what youâre doing , maybe. â the silver haired femme actually laughs at savannahâs inquiries about FAIRIES and them being one , â do i give off chirpy , sparkly vibes to you ? if anyoneâs does here , itâs you. â Â ella finally sits up , not bothering to remove any twigs or grass clinging to their silver hair , â i hear fairies drink DEW , like dew drops , but they they really like milk , cream , and honey. â as if inspired by the talk , they take a swig from their now nearly empty canned VODKA spritzer , â depends who you ask though with the fae, because i also hear they bite. so , maybe i could be a fairy ? â they give a nonchalant shrug of their shoulders , â i identify as a WITCH though. â

What a curious town Pleasance was, for attracting people all over the world, from all different backgrounds. The girl in front of her was no different, except for the mysterious air they had around them. Perhaps they would have been better described in a book, as a mysterious wonder who enters chapter three. It would be a brief encounter, but one where the reader would be left wondering what would be their role, what was their story, and what part did they play? And as chapters go by, you begin to get snippets, the mystery never losing its sense, only parts of it becoming clearer but never as clear as looking through the glass.Â
âYou think?â Her voice rose in question as her eyes drifted back to the silvery water in front of them. This was a place where many things could come out, in human form or not. The stories that were told, over and over again, by the elders or simply the citizens always created an aura of danger in Pleasance. A way to keep people interested, scared, or to navigate them back to its doors. âIf anything, I think sheâs waiting for the perfect time.â Mara never wanted to believe in them. It felt that once she did, sheâd open a gate that she wouldnât want to face. Would anyone ever want the stories to be true? There were books to dive into if one needed the excitement in their lives. Why invite something else that they would not know how to deal with?Â
âI didnât think entities had such a preference. Perhaps in a way of dealing with them? But not in order to choose a victim. If there was a woman and a man, I doubt they would leave one alive. Just an offer of a quicker death.â It was such a bizarre idea to play with. But an idea nonetheless.Â
âSo,â Mara began, wanting to invite them to a conversation. They could sit in silence as well, but Mara did like to talk. Could have been that one thing about her - that she liked a good conversation. Though Arabella was quite a person in themselves. She still didnât want Elsie going to their âhorror houseâ, even though she herself had to stop the urge to visit the place. âHowâs business? How are you enjoying what this little town got to offer?âÂ
ella let hazel green eyes focus out over the OMINOUS water , still searching â for what they didnât know or refused to accept. every part of their being knew that those cold , gray waters housed something far more DANGEROUS than most would expect and that was not to be underestimated. a light hum in agreement and a slight nod of their head ,â you might right about that , MA. arenât we all just waiting for the perfect time ? â she finally tears her gaze away from the eerie waters but only to move further up to the moon hanging overhead. the witch had never had the luxury of disbelief or DENIAL , the paranormal had always been something they were closely connected to. arabella had always been a true believer.
the silver haired femme ABANDONS the moons energizing glow to turn around and face mara , her thoughts drift to the ever allusive edith alby and huffed in her quiet annoyance. their shoulders shrug , â why wouldnât she have a preference ? you heard about the IRISH guy , right ? what about that weird funeral director ? iâd say she has a preference , if current events play a factor into things. we all have appetites , in the AFTERLIFE i imagine itâs an unending hunger. â ella joins the woman in the sand , digging their stiletto nails into the damp earth , â iâm not entirely sure if DEATH is what itâs after and that girl is still missing , so maybe youâre right and there is no notable preference. â they clear their throat , drawing symbols now in the sand as mara shifted the conversation to a less MORBID topic.
they donât life their gaze to answer the question , â itâs not so popular with the locals and still thereâs a steady enough flow of TOURIST traffic to make it worth it. itâs honestly more fun than anything else , but most customers seem impressed enough. â a soft sigh as their thoughts drift to their TWIN FLAME , forrest , who had gone out of town recently , â it can be a lot to handle by yourself though , not going to lie. pleasance is cool as ever though , hope we can STAY. . for a while. â how did he find us ? why is he still looking if the governor is dead ? has it become personal ? how ? why ?
it was fairly late in the evening when arabella gore finished her shift at dutchâs , but as the witch stepped out onto the sidewalk their feet didnât lead back to their beautiful , vintage EMPTY gothic home. instead , the silver haired demigirl found herself heading around the side of the bar straight into the thicket of trees the town called simply: SOUTHWOOD FOREST. it didnât take long for them to find their way to the grove , they frequented the giant sequoia trees rather regularly after coming across them at RANDOM on one of their many nature walks. finding out about the more fascinating and morbid lore surrounding them only proved to make the grove one of their more favorite HAUNTS.Â
ella sat down on a nearby bench â an obvious signs of tourism encroaching â to remove her platform shoes , pulling her tights off to ABANDON them on the seat with her purse before moving closer to the humongous trees. wasting no time ella laid back on the damp forest floor , taking a swig from the vodka seltzer theyâd SNAGGED from work â all the while wishing it was from their own â and gazed up at the giant sequoia trees looming overhead as they called them each by name. the SOUND of someone or something approaching did not go unnoticed despite her state of slight inebriation , if they were a threat though she was none the wiser. ella closes their eyes almost as if to accept whatever FATE came their way before sighing out through the dark , â donât make me hex you. â

How strange could it be, when one side of a thing could be coursed by some dark history, while the other - untouched and unspoiled? Now as she sat down by the edge of it, not minding the dirt that would later leave a stain in her clothes, her eyes focused on the water in front of her. It was silver blue in colour and shaped like a disfigured disc. There was no sound coming from the surface or around it, as if it swallowed the townâs voice and swapped it for the shimmering emptiness around it. It was exactly the kind of quiet she wanted after a busy day at work. No one was okay. There was a dark cloud hovering above every student, every professor as the aftermath of Halloween unfolded.Â
Far out, in the distance, a fish jumped out of the lake, making the only sound that was louder than the wind blowing gently in her ear. It was the only sound that distracted her from the thoughts she came to escape. A little girl was missing. How something so hideous bestow on a town like? Sure they had their fair share of history, the nipping images of the horror that they all knew happened - still played in her dreams at night. But to have a girl missing? Not to know where she was. What was happening to her? Was everyone feeling so hopeless?Â
Just then, she heard the sound behind her, footsteps silently echoing along the surface of the silver lake in front of her. âItâs all right.â She said, without looking back to see who it was. âI was just⌠Admiring.â Mara tried to make her voice sound a little more cheerful that it really was. There was no need to share her thoughts - not if it meant someone elseâs mood coming further down. âWould you join me?â Her head finally turned up to face the person.Â
it was never with any real DEFINITIVE reason that the witch found herself standing on the shores of northwood lake , but she ended many a walk at the edge of the inky black water. they would likely never ADMIT it out loud , but a large part of being draw to the lake was their desperate hope of encountering pleasanceâs very own ghost bride. in all fairness , arabella had met or experienced just about every small town SPOOK there was to offer â all except for edith alby. their twin flame , forrest caulfield , had numerous encounters with the northwood lake specter and though he tried to introduce them on countless occasions edith REFUSED to show herself. Â
alas , she found herself once again on the STONY shores gazing out over the misty water hoping and searching for something , anything , but all she got was a fish . since hearing about the MISSING child they had started taking far more walks than before , venturing out once if not twice a day for walks covering nearly the entire town sometimes without even realizing she was looking for something. ella hadnât actually been in attendance at the HALLOWEEN festivities in town , they really didnât like people that much and large crowds even less , but had nonetheless heard every GRISLY detail. the silver haired femme had suffered a plethora of traumas at the hands of others when they were the very same age as young savannah lark , their mind raced with memories only the image theyâd seen in the PLEASANCE TIMES of the girl was pasted over ella in them.Â
without even realizing it , she must have began slowly WANDERING further along the lakeâs edge and it was actually her that was taken by surprise by the voice on the wind. their heart rate increased as they FROZE in place , holding their breath and eyes going wide as they rove the darkness for what the witch was certain would be edith only to finally land on mara goransson. a huff of a sigh escapes them as they take a few steps closer , â iâd be CAREFUL if i were you. this beast isnât behind glass , it might get hungry. â arms cross over chest as they gaze back out over the water glinting like steel â then again , it seems like more of a MANEATER. â ella returns her gaze to the woman sitting on the shore of northwood lake and shrugged lightly , â i guess , got nowhere else to be. â
