strange things have always happened around elsie ; things she can’t explain , things she isn’t sure she wants to explain. something in her is INCOMPLETE , or maybe caged and yearning to break free. the more she tries to shove it down , the fiercer the wind around them picks up , the more her fingertips tingle with an energy she doesn’t UNDERSTAND. something’s happening to her but she doesn’t know what it is -- and she isn’t in the right frame of mind to realize that perhaps this woman does. perhaps she can help. it takes several more pleases for elsie to finally begin to listen. hands are shaking , but the worst of it is letting up just a little bit.
