12:19 “Touching me,” Kim said, stiff-lipped. “You’re back!” Magick swelled in her, but it was no longer the impossible to ignore noise from when she’d first swallowed the potion. “Was I gone?” Words still slow, stiff with the cold without and that settling within. “Gone enough. Prairie and I had to anchor you.” Kim turned her head. Looked at Prairie’s hand on her shoulder. FollowedContinue reading “Enter the Woods 12:19”

Enter the Woods 12:18
12:18 Kim watched them move. Slow. Too slow. They weren’t going to be able to keep this up for long. The first wave of elementals flowed at them. Ben braced and met the swing of one with Dempsey’s shield. The hit was hard enough it swung his arm wide, leaving his side vulnerable. Another elemental snaked an impossibly long arm out, clawsContinue reading “Enter the Woods 12:18”
Enter the Woods 12:17
12:17 Ben and Dan stepped in fast and caught Erik before he hit the snow. Now completely free of the snow and with his features no longer stiff with cold the resemblance to Al was uncanny. Un-freaking-canny. Maybe if he opened his eyes it would one-hundred percent confirm that the person was Al. But his eyes, like Gia’s remained closed. His chest rose and fellContinue reading “Enter the Woods 12:17”
Enter the Woods 12:16
12:16 Moving as fast as they could while also maintaining their connections to air, the group cleared at least twenty rooms. All were cold, empty, and devoid of any signs of life. No stray pillows or books or toys. Not that the castle gave the appearance of a place where children played, with or without toys, but the point wasContinue reading “Enter the Woods 12:16”
Enter the Woods 12:15
12:15 Ended up it wasn’t that hard to mount a reindeer. Or at least a mechanical reindeer. Put there to be their mount. Which was good as no one was being particularly coordinated. If the reindeer had been resistant to being mounted there was a very strong possibility most of the group would have been on their asses in the snow. But the reindeer were cooperative andContinue reading “Enter the Woods 12:15”
Enter the Woods 12:14
12:14 The door opened to an impossible scene. Again Kim questioned using the term since nothing was really impossible in ARFA. But still it was fucking weird to open the door to snow. Sunlight bounced off it, blinding bright so she had to raise a hand to shield her eyes. “Snow.” Gwen pushed up next to her andContinue reading “Enter the Woods 12:14”
Enter the Woods 12:13
12:13 “My name is Terra. My mo—mother is Beatrice. Was Beatrice.” Nestled in Ivan’s arms, safe for the moment, Prairie barely registered it when Kim exited the dining room. She’d like to claim it was because she was focused on the explanation Terra was giving to her friends. But really she was just feeling very. Very low energy. Very unsure. And very scared. Kim slid out of the dining room, expressionContinue reading “Enter the Woods 12:13”
Enter the Woods 12:12
12:12 Prairie’s response was a terse nod. Then she walked from the room with head high and tray higher. She walked down the hall, her hips taking on some sway as she approached the guards, stationed once more on either side of the door. The guard to the left stiffened at their approach. “More?” “There are a lot atContinue reading “Enter the Woods 12:12”
Enter the Woods 12:11
12:11 They walked across the stone courtyard – Kim thought it was called a bailey – and then through the drawbridge and over the wide bridge that spanned the moat. They’d walked maybe a mero along the path leading away from the castle when Dan came to an abrupt halt and turned to look back. Pulled a book out of his vest. Flipped a page. Frowned. Kim halted her forward movementContinue reading “Enter the Woods 12:11”
Enter the Wood 12:10
12:10 “Folks?” Abe’s question drew the attention of the group. When they saw they had everyone’s eyes on them they pointed to the column. Or rather to the top of the column. “I think I know where the Prince and Princess are.” Kim looked up at where Abe pointed. All she could see was glowing monitors with children andContinue reading “Enter the Wood 12:10”
