Prompt Word: Hedge

Minervie and Chip 74

Graendle rumbled deeply to the team, “The witch and I have never been friendly, and that isn’t about to start now.”

Cathy spoke up, “Back on topic, treant, what do you know of the Unicorn?”

Greandle’s upper branches quivered, “It appeared, though I was not there to see it, on the same day as the last visit. I have heard from the wood, that it appeared in a tree, and the tree broke under it.”


Cathy said cautiously, “What do you mean, appeared in a tree?”

Graendle groaned, “I cannot explain what I have not seen, only that I am told it appeared. It did not land. It did not climb.”

Cathy nodded, “Where is it now?”

Greandle said, “This I saw, it was about 30 minutes later, after Chip stopped asking me questions, the Unicorn stopped existing.” A branch stretched to a place North, a hedge between trees, “The magic ceased suddenly, as if it had never been.”


Cathy was thinking, and Minervie spoke up, “Treant, did anything else happen at the same time?”

Greandle got squeaky, “Witch, a whole lot happened while the Unicorn existed. A group came in, led by the yelling man. The unicorn appeared as they literally passed by the tree it was in. I met the yelling man, and there was a magic storm. The group spent some minutes trying to, ah, they took the yelling man away. As the last of them left the South gate, the Unicorn was gone.”


Cathy snapped out of her reverie, and said, “Are you saying the unicorn was created by the group?”

Greandle responded, “I said no such thing. I was asked for other happenings, and those are the happenings I know of. Magic in my wood is rarely simple.”
