For [personal profile] mullenkamp, who asked for stuff about Eirlys. lol 200 words again. XD;

Out in the garden, the moonlight made the night-blooming flowers luminous. Amidst the shadows of leaves, fireflies drifted, emerald-green. At the centre of the circle, robed in blue and guarded by the light of four candles, the Priestess stood.

Outside the circle, an enormous raven sat on the grass.

"I wasn't expecting you," Eirlys said, "but you're welcome all the same. I trust you know how to behave yourself; I know all your dramatics are exactly that."

The raven stared at Eirlys as if she'd grown antlers.

Eirlys crouched and arched a brow. "What are you giving me that look for? You know me, and you know my people. You know what we gave to you. I've been telling you this for several nights now. My invitation still stands."

Very deliberately, the raven stepped into the circle. He eyed Eirlys a moment more, then spread his wings, flapped, lifted off. In a flurry of shed feathers he settled on her shoulder.

"Very Edgar Allen Poe of you," Eirlys said after a pause. "I assume those are for me?"

of course. it's the least i can give.

"You still sound laryngitic, Host-of-Many. It's rather a good thing I always make enough tea to offer all three of you..."
