'Ware The Witchcraft
Witches three come forth to show their power and confidence. They are a force for good but will not be told what to do.
They care for nature, for the sick and poor, and will not countenance any darkness or evil for the realm of men.
They are spectral beauties and enchantresses, but neverto be trifled with.
Always have been and always will be.
Show respect and follow their advice, and you will prosper.
Eschew evil and darkness, and life will be close to perfect for you.
Remember this:
" 'Ware the Witchcraft"
When the witches come.

The Silent Love of the Forest
Deep between green mountains lay a vast and peaceful forest where life moved in harmony with nature. Every morning, golden sunlight slipped gently through the leaves, painting patterns upon the soft earth. Birds filled the air with melodies, and a clear river flowed through the forest like a silver ribbon, carrying stories of time itself.
