The Art of Colloquy
a story in three chapters
Chapter One
Six children left their home one night to visit Family on the other side of the forest. As Horse and Wagon trundled along the path, Wind's bite grew sharper and colder.
The siblings huddled closer together, pulling hay and blankets over them. But fierce Wind soon won.
Chapter Two
As the children lay in Wagon, with limbs entwined, beginning to freeze, the dolls and toys that they left behind become gravely aware of the children's souls being forced from their little freezing bodies.
Going against their oath, the toys crafted a song to reach beyond and between worlds. Spirit Dolls were chosen to carry the song to Horse
Chapter Three
Hearing Spirit Dolls, Horse led Wagon to the village of Babas. Babas were the only ones who still knew the exact right ancient whisper, which will bring children back from the world of the dead.
One by one, Babas whispered their spell and the children began to wake.
The End.
