The Garden of EDEN

Evangeline Dahlia Ehani Nailah Garden. Long name, I know. But that is not why you are here. You are here to hear about a legend. A legend about a powerful witch. Now, although this is indeed a legend, it is very much true. This is her story.

***
"Before I begin this story, you must know that The Great Eden was an extremely powerful witch that everyone feared and loved at the same time."
"Like you?"
I laughed. "Yes, like me."
"What else?"
"I will tell you more but first you must tell me how you have come to hear about this story."
"On my way back from Jillian's a man in a dark coat came to me and told me."
"Taraji, what have I told you about associating with strange men?"
"But mother-"
"What did this man look like?"
"I am not quite sure. He had his face covered the whole time. He said that if I wanted to know more about her that I had to talk to you."
I looked at Thalia and she knew exactly what to do. I sighed and rubbed my eyes. When I looked back at my children, they had anticipation in their eyes and I could not help but smile. I continued my story.
"Now, let us begin. Eden did not really know how powerful she really was. Until one day she was pushed past her limit."
Navid scooted closer and a small smile curled up to my lips. "What do you mean?"
"You will see once I get to the end."
"Continue, please."
