The Bard Speaks
“ Three days of snow covered the village, draping the roofs and windows with blazing white. On the night for stories, flaky chunks of snow fell from the sky. Yet the children still came. The older boys helped the Bard’s grandson plow a path to the cabin. He had grown much since the previous summer. He was thin and lanky, with limbs now longer than he was accustomed.
The doors and windows of the cabin glowed from the fire built up in the hearth. The Bard was in his place, his silhouette black ag...ainst the crackling tongues of flame shooting up behind him. The heat soothed the young and the room grew crowded with them sitting, lying, and leaning against each other for comfort. Eventually, the cabin became hotter than summer, and the children’s sweat glued them to each other.
But tonight, the young would bear with the heat. They were more excited than usual for this night’s tale. The week before, his own grandson challenged the Bard that Ella Bandita was not truly a seductress, but a vicious trickster.MoreLess
