Day 104
Dusk
Staring down at the burning remains of what was once a human girl, my brows knit and I sigh in disappointment as I watch her skinless body whither then turn to ash. She seemed so promising too. Young, naïve, and some might have even said smart. However, not smart enough to ask for the correct thing for her third wish. Pathetically arrogant creatures to believe his only desire is to grant their greedy little requests. Though, I do enjoy seeing how he interprets them and the look on their face when they get exactly what they wished for.
I brush ashes from my dress and with a wave of my hand the wind gusts, extinguishing the fire, scattering ashes and charred dirt across the yard of the farm. The pendant on my breast burns and hums in agitation and I cover it with my hand and smile, “Don’t worry my darling, we’ll find another,” I murmur as I turn, choosing to walk the short distance back to town. We just have to find the right one and we’ll keep playing until we do.
Reaching town, I look around and note several possible options, all easily picked by the sickening smell of compassion I do so hate. But then, I hear a child’s laugh ringing in the air like nails on a chalk board, and my eyes narrow as I turn and see a little girl playing with her toys in the grass behind a house. Ooh how I loath human children, I’ve never found much use for the horrid little things aside from teaching their parents a lesson or two. But this one is different and not entirely human, this one is half fae.
I think we’ll play with this one next. A bright smile lights my face as I quietly walk up to the little one, smoothing my dress as I crouch beside her. “Hi,” I say cheerfully. “My name is Lily, what’s yours?”
