Hi everyone!
This is just a quick update to let you all know that the surgery went smoothly and that recovery over the last few weeks have been going well!
I’ve been slowly working on the next story in the The Further Adventures of Red Riding Hood, which I’m hoping to have out sometime near the end of the month!
For now, if you haven’t read it yet, please check out the first story of the series, The Witch of the Gingerbread House!
And finally, a little tease of the next story 😄!
(Please keep in mind that this hasn’t been properly proofread yet.)
"Be careful," Caliburn said to the movers, "many of the late queen's items are of an unknown nature. They need to be carefully moved and stored, so that further study can be carried out."
The movers answered in acknowledgement and began to work.
The prince stood to the side, watching as the movers carried away his late mother's possessions - possessions that might have been used to curse his half-sister, the late queen's stepdaughter.
Suddenly, several of the movers started to panic.
The prince looked over.
The covered mirror that some of the movers had been carrying was shaking.
The prince started to walk over, "What's-"
Suddenly, as if the mirror had leapt out of the movers' grasp, the mirror tilted forward and crashed into the ground.
The sound of shattering mirror was deafening.
The room paused.
After a moment, calm began to return to the room, and many began to gather around the shattered mirror.
The prince approached as well.
"What happened?" he asked.
"M-My prince!" one of the movers said, "Our deepest apologies!"
"The mirror started to shake by itself, and we lost our grip on it!" another mover said, "I-It was almost like it jumped out of our hands!"
Realizing what had been said, the mover added in a panic, "I-I know that sounds ridiculous, but it's true - I swear! I am so sorry, my prince!"
The prince looked down at the shards of mirror that had spilled out from underneath the cloth that had been covering it.
Was the mirror... alive?
The prince shook his head and pushed the ridiculous notion out from his head.
"It's alright," the prince began to say, "Let's..."
The prince trailed off, as he noticed that the shards of mirror were beginning to rise up into the air.
As the shards continued to rise, everyone in the room stepped back.
"My prince!" Caliburn rushed to his side, "Please, leave-"
Suddenly, the shards flew towards the prince!
