The ground was pelted with rain. The afternoon sun had long since fallen in its journey above the trees. Puddles dwelled on top of hoof-printed dirt, promising green sprouts for the long week ahead. Stones darkened as they were sprinkled and as the ground began to loose its heat, fog rolled in like a plague. It was August, the twenty third, many-- many moons ago my fawn. And the skies were dark, and only the moon spilled its silvery light over leaves and moss-covered ground. Under the wet soil, not so deep, a deer slept in peace. She had long since been forgotten and had heard every fawn's footsteps that came after her, running happily on the dust-covered surface. Her flesh had long since become part of the earth, and her bones had nearly turned to ash. Yet she waited, patiently.
In the crossroads of time, the great spirits gathered, whispered and mingled in the earth-doe's mind, and soul. Somewhere between life and death, joy and sorrow, Heaven and Earth...
"Enid," the voices whispered over and over, and all at once in circling-- loud and silent voices. Dozens of them. The word was not heard, it was not seen... it was
known. "Rise," came the command from the shrill, clear, fluid voices which were not heard, but more-- understood. The earth rose, and the doe was released from her muddy cage. All of the weakness in the world could not describe her, of all that was sorrow, she was it ten-fold. Her frail, soiled, weak and tired body knelt when she was awakened.
