I: The Wolf, the Maiden and the Tower


The moon is high and the stars are nowhere to be found.

In the middle of the dying forest that's almost clothed in white winter, stands a black stone tower- a peculiar, less than comforting sight. On top of the tower, sitting on the large window and holding onto a twisted wooden column-banister, is a young maiden in virginal white dress. Her eyes are blood red and her hair is long and white. She is the forgotten one- the one, who for fifteen years has suffered alone.

Beneath the tower stands nature's vilest predator. It is a wolf with mane of silver and eyes of molten gold. The wolf is a peculiar creature, for lining the middle of its ears is a fat streak of bluish black fur.

The wolf is staring up the tower.

The maiden is staring down to the wolf.

"What are you doing here?!" she shouts, finally deciding to make a conversation with the predator.

The animal responds with a gentle cocking of its head. It seems to understand her. Wonderful…

"You have been coming here for the past seven nights! Are you to keep me company?!" she asks.

And as if to answer her inquiry, the wolf turns away… disappearing into the dark, dark woods.


And yeah. That's it. I think its a bit half-assed. Still, not that bad anyway. Please comment your thoughts. See ya next time!
