The Eternity Tree (and shadow)
The Banshee is dressed in teal silk and strange looks today; she takes slow, thoughtful steps around the grove, as if considering the implications of every misplaced twig and crushed blade of grass. She is very pale, staying to the shadows of the tall trees. Her eyes are bloodshot, but her gaze strangely clear. As you approach, you get the sense off her of one in the fierce calm after great revelation. She looks up at you and smiles… heartbreakingly soft, the lines of her face, the kindness in her eyes.
She makes a gentle curtsey to you in greeting; asking after your health and happiness. As the conversation lulls, your eyes stray to the Tree at the center of the grove: it looks just slightly out of place there, as if it just… appeared. But of course, that is ridiculous; trees do not move… do they?
Like a dreamer, the rest of her words do not make a great deal of sense…
