#Old hag's haven
Creaking doors,Dark sky,A full moon...
Luna walks aimlessly into the woods...sleep walking for the fifth time in the week,bared foot....snow white night dress,her dark curls falling wildly around her face.The wind is howling carrying a hefty storm about,Deeper,darker,hollow is the path to the Old hag's haven.It calls to her every night as the Moon rises in the east,sitting alone in a starless sky.
Moist fertile ground fed with the flesh of men and strengthened with the bones of warriors,painted with the blood of new horns...the trees hold their peace as she walks on,staring in curiosity how the Hag hasn't asked for her soul just yet...and fed their roots with her blood,
She close,a few steps to that creaky door and deathly quiet dark house where the only sound known is the rocking chair of the Hag...
She stops at the door and just about to step in...her mother calls out to her from her sleep."Luna!!!! it's high time you get yourself off that bed and quit being lazy." She grunts awake turn in her bed and gets down from the bed finding her feet stained black from soil,sleep walking becoming her new way of life since herself and her Mum moved here three weeks ago,She walk into the bathroom to brush and get ready for school just wondering why she never gets into that creaky house...as frightening as the house seems,it calls to her every night.Turning around she finds a black raven staring back at her..Amusing that is;She turns her head,her curls bouncing along with the short movement as she inspects the Bird and so does the Bird to her,she's caught up staring at the Bird mildly aware of the drool pooled at her feet and her Mum behind her obviously frustrated.
"What's your problem again Luna?!"Her Mum asks annoyed.
"Sorry Mum I'll be out in a Second,Did you see that black bird?"She turns to her Mum with toothbrush in hand.
"What Bird?Luna get dressed,you're running late...I wonder what your problem is these days?!"She Pivots out of the room leaving Luna to her thoughts of if she's gone crazy or not.....
