A scene
In a willow hollow of the Weeping Forest, the witch Morgause burns a pinch of grave dirt and calls whatever small, sad things are listening. Two answer: faint shapes like breath on cold glass. She shows the first a rune scratched on a stolen amulet, and it whispers what the sign means. She hands the second a gold ring pulled from a drowned man, and it hisses a name, the name of the last man who owned it. Morgause smiles thinly. She knows that man.
