A LITTLE STORY OF BELONGING

What Goes Creak in the Woods

Dusk at Misty's place, a small home at the edge of the Whispering Woods. Misty on her step looking out over the Cove, the shore crystals lighting along the beach, the tall Clearing crystal glowing in the distance. A hanging pot by the door with a pillow stuffed in it and Fuzzby's legs sticking out. Zenny hovering neatly beside it.

Misty's place is the last house before the Whispering Woods. From her step, you can watch the Cove go to bed.

The sea went hush. The shore crystals came on, one, two, three. The tall crystal in the Clearing glowed, a night light for everyone.

Fuzzby and Zenny were staying over.

BUZZZZ-fump.

Fuzzby landed pillow-first in the hanging pot by the door.

"Nailed it," said the pillow.
