“Very well!” she remarked, pulling her lute from the recesses of her cloak. “Here’s a little something about some people you might want to make friends with. *AHEM*

  Witches are Truly Keen:

  We’re…… a…… button and buckle on every pocket, a secret inside every locket, we fly across the sky just like rockets… yes, witches are truly keen.

  Witches… witches… pointed hats and pointed shoes…

  Witches…witches… cauldrons full of bubbling brew…

  Oh! We plant the flowers that call the bees, we see the things that no one sees, sometimes we even take naps in treeees…Witches are truly keen!

  If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

  Always in black from dusk til, noon, look out evil, we’ll spell your doom, if you’re not friends with a witch then make one soooon… witches are truly keen!

  Witches… witches… pointed hats and pointed shoes…

  Witches…witches… cauldrons full of bubbling brew…

  We merrily meet and merrily part then merrily meet again, across the snow, across the fields and deserts made of sand!

  Broom in broom we sing in tune, we may not be what you assume…we vanish in smoky plumeeeeeeessssss…

  Oh! witches are truuuuuuuuuuullllyyyyyyyyyyyyy keeeeeeeeeen!”

  And so…with a witch’s song in their ears, the brave but battered companions forged ahead with their heavy burdens of packs and wounded boys into a new day. None of them sure of what awaited them in the days to follow…or just beyond the next horizon.
