@asteelgarden liked 4 starter for me to torment a GOBLBON welcome t o north varennes
It began with a single monarch, a flicker of ember-bright orange against the blue of sky. Then, an hour later, came another. Then twelve. They did not move as a swarm, nor in thoughtless chaos, but as if guided by a silent directive.
It mattered not which direction this ornery lone traveler turned-- whether down the winding path toward the town, through the cluttered streets of Avalon, or into the dim hush of an inn-- there would be butterflies waiting. Five trailing the goblin through the marketplace. Three poised expectantly upon the inn’s doorframe, clinging to the wood as though standing guard.
It was not mere happenstance.
They were watching.
Whispering.
"You too... are far from home."
