Pt 3 - The Druid's Oasis

Lily hummed and skipped as she went through the paths of the forest, a winding, twisting trail that seemed endless and aimless. She moved along happily, never once questioning her choice of direction or aim, even as Gux followed along, getting tangled...

Pt 1 - The Druid's Table

A young woman walked through the woods, singing as she did. Her fingers brushed over the ferns, causing them to seem to turn and follow the music with her every motion, not that she paid it any mind. She simply enjoyed the time she spent outside,...

Pt 5 - The Druid's Lessons

Lily taught Gux. For most, taking on an apprentice was a simple task: they were brought before the council, the council gave them a cursory look, asked them a few questions, and that was that. Either they were given the golden leaf of discovery, or...

Pt 8 - The Druid's Rescue

Gux ran through the edge of the clearing, feeling the magical essence in the air like a familiar friend as he stumbled to the edge of Lily's house. "Lily! I'm here!" he barked out, yelling towards the house. There was no response, and as he looked...
