"Nowadays, the willow is all that remains of that Great Old Wood. 'But,' says Aunt Helena, 'One can still see the fairies dancing 'round it. Oh yes, for they have not gone, Child. And those with pure heart and eyes to see can still spot them ... if he be ever so watchful.'"

The Forest
Ernwood Forest is home to people living hidden from the prying eyes of humans; the Winged and their tribes. These people stand no taller than a few centimetres off the ground, meaning that things can sometimes get a little difficult... especially when humans are involved. But life isn't all bad. For the first time ever, Azure and the tribes have a human of their own protecting them from the sinister forces beyond the edge of the trees. As the months of winter roll in, nights are growing longer and snow has settled on the leafless branches. The forest is still. The only humans anyone expects to see are the few that know of the tiny people's existence. But the tribes are not alone in the forest anymore. The abductions begin. The past awakens. And a long forgotten shadow falls over the forest. Azure and the others once again find themselves having to fight to prevent their family from being ripped apart- only this time, things are different. This time, even the humans are in danger. ❤️❤️ Updates: When I can ahh❤️❤️ ⚠️ Mild fear/ violence warning --- This is the third part to this little trilogy :) I would recommend reading the other parts first if you can suffer through them. I can gladly summarise all that has happened so far in a lil note in the beginning if people so desire to skip two stories full of what a younger-me considered good writing :)

Dusk and Dawn [#Wattys2016]
My name is Willow and this short story tells about me and Hunter. He had a secret, and since telling me this secret that he was a vampire I've had strange happenings in this quiet town, like a murder that was done by another vampire. A/N: this story isn't what it sounds like, like a vampire high school love story... No this isn't a copy of Twilight, either.Abgeschlossene Geschichte
