Starlight. Star. Bright.

Glistening with sweat, Boranadorous Melkiridale Fes bent over, breathing hard.

Looking back, over the trees, the black smoke piled higher and higher into the sky.

My people. My family.

“Sung a little one. Over the hills, far away. Sung a great long song. Under the hills, right unnnn-derrr.”

Boran jumped. So close. How could she be so close.

She – the Monster under beds, the Lady who never dreams, the Fairy Who Walks – had butchered every one of his family, every one of his village, and laughed while watching Boran run.

“Sung a little one. Booooorrrrrrraaaaaannnnnnnn.”

She comes.

Boran stopped. He would end this now, one way or another.

“Come out monster. Come out, come out, where-ever you are.”

And the Lady came out.

And the battle was fought.

And the victor sang a little one.
