Halloween is here… an epilogue to this months adventure with Zhe’ra the one once called a witch! #wordprompt #writingcommunity #VSS365 #Whistpr #VSSDaily #VSSMagic #WoTtober #BlueSkyRelay Prompts and full text in alt! Post 2/2 of this.. The missing prompt will be handled separately later:)

A Halloween afterthought
It had been a few months since she came to Al’Edos. In this new #turning of the wheel, wonder was once again possible.
For so many centuries, her thoughts had been so bad — they fed the dark. Now her #instinct had returned. It was #Halloween and the Edroth had taken to the holiday with glee. Her newfound Aludim was so enthralled she couldn’t help but laugh!
There were no #monsters here, no #ghosts or such. She had heard of creatures of Darkness, but she hoped they would stay there.
Zhe’ra sat there on the flight-#deck of the parliament, the ocean was visible for miles and miles. And the Edroth and other people here were a hoot!
Yes, she had finally found her home. At nine hundred years young.

Halloween?
Zhe’ra rounded the edge and stepped into a beautiful square. She might end up having an #unholy #fetish about this city.
Whoever came up with this city, this #invention, was genius!
She heard the bussing in her head again. And behind her she heard powerful beats pushing air towards her. A #monster!No, this must be an Edroth!
Her first #instinct was to «hit the #deck» but she remained strong! She wasn’t afraid of monster or #ghost — though, maybe, a little #edgy. For a brief moment she wondered wether any #haloween myths were true.
Though, as she turned. She saw the most magnificent creature she’d ever seen. Breathtakingly so. The being radiated love and safety. Zhe’ra finally felt like she was home — where she was always meant to be.

Halloween is approaching… not long now… what’s trying to get into her mind? #wordprompt #writingcommunity #VSS365 #Whistpr #VSSDaily #VSSMagic #Emoetry #WIPSnips #BlueSkyRelay #WoTtober #WeirdMicro Prompts and full text in alt!

Something is changing
Coming back from that #memory, Zhe’ra continued, as under a #spell, ever so slowly, around the big circular building. Somewhere around her she could hear a #herd of something.
Possibly not a herd at all —a flock, maybe — having a #nocturnal #feast. She caught only fragments of sound, but it was brutal. Maybe these Edroth ate like that?
And what was up with the #purple eyed creatures? Were they related. Anyhow, she didn’t know what to feel now, #defeated? Hopefully? Who knew, life wasn’t a box of #cherries. She felt, though, a small #ray of hope emerging…

Mind, her mind felt fuzzy — like she couldn’t even hear her voice in the static. It was as if something - or someone was aware of her.

Halloween is approaching… the witch is very old. With visions of ancient experiences taking her suddenly… #wordprompt #writingcommunity #VSS365 #Whistpr #VSSDaily #VSSMagic #Emoetry #WIPSnips #BlueSkyRelay #WoTtober #WeirdMicro Prompts and full text in alt!

Rememberance
Looking up at a tree, with a single one leaf that refused to fall, a vision took her back to another #turning altogether. She found herself brushing the pier - with a #broomstick. Her #love, Nerys, was returning with the Atha’an ship due today.
Unless their plan should #fail, they would escape the scouts #cyclopean #gouge and escape to the cabin she had prepared up on the mountain. There they could live #carefree and#merge their lives as they wanted.
They would be able to live for centiuries, till their hair turned #argent. Together.
As the vision ended, she fell to her knees. The life she had to leave, so many centuries ago. What would this new age of the Edroth bring?

They gathered in a #circle, thirteen women in all. Opening themselves to the Light, they joined their power with each other. Their power flowed upwards, to the upper stratosphere above. Lowered pressure, froze droplets, creating crystals flurrying down, bringing joy to all the children. #wottober

MadlandsShogun @madlands-shogun.bsky.social · 11mo ago

~Pretty~ ‘Milk-faced’, ‘Long-fingers’, bu-‘xom, slim-waisted.. ‘Big-eyes’; ‘Well-turned calf’ thirst-trap.. 🫦 #WOTtober #WOTskies

Glimpsing the city
Finding herself in near #endless #blackness, from close by Zhe’ra heard water, no, the ocean. Squinting she could see a vast structure seeming to #arch up from the ground, with a strange glow within it.

The flowers around her was #pretty even in the darkness. The beauty around her broke her, made her feel old and #battered – like a #vulture craving scraps. She cried. Gathering herself, she connected to the source once more, she #manifested changes to improve and repair her #costume. Making herself appear in charge and powerful.

She quickly noticed the stones here weren’t placed by some sort of #experiment. They were very deliberately placed for optimal power throughput!

#WoTtober #WoTBookSpoilers Does "the circle" refer to the eye of the storm with the light coming down or the endless cycle of lives, losses and loves? Yes. #WoTSkies #art
