Short folk story. All she knew was laughter. Silalela! The men of her village looked away. "Pah!" They said, "She is impure! Her spirit has no breath. What has she given us, but laughter? What will she ever take, but joy?" The wise inyanga pressed his palm to her heart. "It is cold," he said, "You must warm your heart before any man will desire it." "Yebo!" She cried, "Then that is what I shall do!" This was written as an exercise in writing a performance-style folk tale in a style we're not familiar with. I don't know much about the Zulu culture apart from enjoying their stories, so I am sure there are errors. If there are any please let me know as I'm here to learn!

A retelling of an old legend from Roche Rock, Cornwall, England, from the 1400s. When a leper named Ogrin seeks refuge in the ruins of a windswept Cornish chapel, the village of Roche largely lets him be. But when a wild-haired girl appears among the granite boulders-barefoot, unblinking, speaking to rooks, and stealing pennyworts off walls-people begin to whisper. She's too strange. Too silent. Too different. They call her Janet. They call her healer. Then they call her witch. No one dares climb the rock - not until a priest is called from Bodmin with scripture, soldiers, and fear in his eyes. But Roche Rock, and the people around it, keep their secrets close, and those who go looking for demons may not like what they find. Set in 15th-century Cornwall and steeped in Gothic atmosphere, The Witch of Roche Rock is a tale of suspicion, superstition, and salvation ... or is it damnation? A retelling of a local legend, this is a short story for lovers of folklore and ghost stories, and tale of tolerance and the importance of accepting others' differences.
