Wow - Thank you very much for the comment! This is another one of my favorites... I guess you could say it's inspired a lot by how the world when I was younger, and how I still see the world today, in some way. I won't try to affix a meaning to it, as the meaning for this one really is whatever the reader takes from it. Some people might see the spirits as being purely malicious, others as flawed and beautiful creatures, still others as agents of kindness in world rapidly changing... Or something else entirely.

... Also, at heart, I just really like fairytales. I'm pretty sure it's obvious in retrospect, but I've always loved the oldest ones, that kind that have gorgeous watercolors, or sagas told around huge fires. Blame all the tea, I suppose!... Aha, but I digress.

If you have the time, a sort of sister-piece is Bielina; more than that, I cannot really say. Thank you so much; I'm quite glad you enjoyed it, and that it left you questioning and thinking! Thanks for the comment, and again - glad you enjoyed it!
