Lohiem Tree Goddess

Strange Encounter

*play song at the start*
Natapee (fairy)

Natapee hit her head while being dragged inside the tree.

"Ugh where am I".
A voice from a person I cannot see replies "Who are you and why are you trespassing on the Sacred Tree".
Confused I answer explaining I was just resting for a moment and accidentally fell asleep. I feel the person pause, and think about what I just said.

Slowly they walk out of the shadow they were standing in and I can't believe it but, it's... Bellilah?
"Bellilah what are you doing here you should be with the other fairies"
Confusion runs through me
"But i'm not a fairy" Bellilah replies, "Ive been a spy for Gretchwalt Marie the whole time."
A chill runs down my spine
My brown tries to put the pieces of what's happening together.

"W-WHAT Bellilah please please PLEASE tell me you're lying"
"No, i'm not. Gretchwalt Marie has had her eyes on you for a while and now we finally have you"

"Anyways enough small talk, I'd better go get Gretchwalt before she gets impaciente."

Bellilah leaves to go get Gretchwalt Marie.

"No.. No" This can't be happening to me. I feel my body shake. I try to tell Bellilah to stop but nothing but air escapes my mouth.

I start shaking and crying.
Goosebumps all over my body.
I've heard stories about Gretchwalt Marie, and not good ones.
I have no clue what she could want from me but the thought of having to face her is enough to scare me.

No matter what she wants from me, I know it can't be good.

A tear falls from my eyes as I recall the stories about fairies found wandering the forest with body parts missing, mentally unstable, or some never found again.

Thinking about all the possibilities for what could happen to me scare me so I try not to think at all clear my head.

My heart finally calms downs a little when I hear footsteps.

A large figure appears before me with Bellilah by their side.

"Oh Natapee" it says

I recognize them as Gretchwalt Marie.
I quiver

"How nice to finally see you"
