delweiss, at first glance, appeared to be nothing more than a natural occurring valley, buried at the bottom of some cliffs, but looking closer, gentle curls of smoke floated up above a cluster of pines. “Come on, then. Down we plunge,” said Finn. “You don’t mean jump…Do you?” Grace stared back with alarm. “I can’t!” Finn hooted with laughter. “Of course not! We’ll use the stairs,” prancing through a patch of wildflowers, Finn revealed a spiraling set of stairs cut into the side of the cliff…

“Don’t go too deep into the forest, Viola.” That’s what my father had always told me. All the adults in the village said the same thing, so it seemed like a platitude said to children who wanted to play in the forest. The wind blew, making my skirt and golden braids sway.

Silently, I scanned for my breakfast, tongue gliding out to sense the mouse’s location.
