THE CUPCAKE LURE Deliciously wicked, she said, devouring the adorable mini-cupcakes full of scared cartoon ghosts, chuckling vampires and boo-pumpkins. I wiped cobwebbed icing from her lips, And she wiped mine, then our lips met- And the night increasingly became deliciously wicked in its revelry.

The fields are black bordering the deserted harbour, furious dark waves breach the unopened doors of an ancient mausoleum, an abrupt earthquake shakes crouching gargoyles on ruined spires, stirring bitter torments buried in cold tombs. #FromOneLine #vss365 #vssfantasy #emoetry #inkmine #BSPP58 #poem

I knew the strange lantern was not meant for humans when it whispered my name, slithering yearning deep into my brain. I can grant you a wish paid for in light. Go, use me to burn making day out of night. I could hardly resist as it knew me so well, so I turned this old town into hell. #vssfantasy

He brushed away the #cobwebs, cleaned the floors, painted the walls. His crew shoveled debris into large bins. Electricians fixed the wiring, plumbers fixed the piping, workers replaced the insulation and flooring. The old mansion was becoming alive. The ghosts approved. #vssfantasy #writing

"Should we be worried?" "What?" "As soon as the sun goes down, our magic becomes stronger. It's convenient, but I can't help but be concerned." "Ah, don't worry about it. It always happens this time of year. Maybe it's just natural." She wasn't convinced of the fact. #vssfantasy #writing

As #twilight fell, the village settled in for a long autumn night. The chilly wind blew through. The ashes of the bonfires grew cold, the animals began their sleep, and the people awaited the snows to come. The land lost its warmth until the coming spring. #vssfantasy #writing #writingcommunity

"The #crispness of the air, you can almost taste it, no?" He glanced at her. "No, I can't, but I wish." "Ah, forgive me, I forgot that your people can't sense the autumn like we can. I wish I could share the experience with you." His smile was wistful. "One day." #vssfantasy #writing

The #swallows flew south for the winter. All the augurs and oracles foretold a harsh snow this season and warned all the lords to plan accordingly. Some of them listened and survived the blizzards. Others did not and froze in their own castles. Fate was quite fickle. #vssfantasy #writing

Two squirrel families lived in neighbouring trees. One family #foraged all summer and autumn and stored nuts away for the winter. The other waited until the last moment to do the same. Come spring, one of the trees was empty, the storage devoid of any nuts. The other had a surplus. #vssfantasy

"This is her year of #maturity," the Queen argued. "We need to find a match for her before the leaves fall." The vizier nodded. "We shall redouble our efforts, my lady, but she refuses every offer. Unless..." "Unless?" "You look within the household. Her knight protector, perhaps?" #vssfantasy

The #hedgerow separated the lord's estate from the crossroads. He always felt uneasy at that corner of the garden and left it to lie fallow. The one spot gave him the chills. The Fae didn't mind. They frolicked with the spirits between the shrubs and bushes. #vssfantasy #writing #writingcommunity

She was raised to be the next #orchardist. She would be in charge of the family's apple orchard. The botanists taught her how to take care of the trees, how to get rid of the bugs, and how to plant the next generation. Then she became an adventurer, and left that behind. #vssfantasy #writing

"What does the autumn leaf say?" The oracle narrowed her eyes. "It is no ordinary leaf, my lord. Look at the writing upon it." "It's barely legible. That's why I'm asking YOU." She sobered. "The winter snows sets its claws into your skin. Prepare accordingly." #vssfantasy #writing

"The botanists are helping to #harvest the fields," she said as she wiped sweat from her brow. "They're picking up seeds for the next season." "Good." The wizard nodded sagely. "Have them bring them to my greenhouse. We can use magic to grow them and supplement the winter stores." #vssfantasy

Harvesting ✒️: Fayre Skye #vssfantasy

The village had spent every summer harvesting moonberries to keep their protective magic alive. But each year, there were fewer berries, until only one remained.
No one was brave enough to pluck it.
One little girl waited until she could sneak away. She plucked the berry and planted it in a field near the village.
The next morning, dozens of bushes had appeared, each covered in fresh moonberries.
