Breathing heavy I ran into the forest. Lee, poor Lee he must be dead or even eaten by those hairy women creatures. Oh shit, I should have stayed. I might have helped him, yea or I might be tomorrow's supper.
The forest is dark, in some spots even pitch black. The trees cut off most of the light that does trickle down to the forest floor. I know I'm lost as well off the pathway I've wandered.
Sounds of talking ahead, I hear laughing and sounds of music I'm saved! Walking faster to see who is going to show me the Hell out of here I push my way through the under brush.
A campfire smoke ahead, but then harsh words come to my ears. I slow and lister to the talk. Men discussing sexual conquests in graphic details. Tough mean sounding men, I ponder if they would help me or do me harm?
I circle the camp to be to their right side. Soon I stand in the wafting smoke from the campfire as I creep close to see.
"This forest is a HELL to itself.!" Men, sorta' more part men part animals. Some a mixture of man and goat. While others are a mix of deer, moose, and demonic looking cervines.
I'm sure I don't want anything to do with them. I creep down and make my way toward the east. About one hundred yards of creeping threw the
brush I get up to just run like hell.
On sooner do I stand up but coming near on a path is a veiled woman walking ever so calmly. Around her is a group of massive boar hogs. The beasts seem tame yet gambol about her as if wishing to please her in anyway possible.
Huge boars, maybe four hundred pounds each. Tusks curve out of their mouths as strings of saliva drip out onto the ground. She talks to them, calling each by name. Then she stops and the boars' stand very still.
"Charles Levey, come Charles come before some forest creature has you as it's lunch. Be not affraid I am a kind soul, see here even course beasts love me, come to me!"
She knows my inner thoughts, my name, what else could she know? I stood still, not moving back or forward. My thoughts a jumble of this days scene of terror.
It seems right and stepping forward I approach the veiled woman.
"Ahh my friends here come Mr. Charles Levey. Be assured I will not harm you, today we shall dine at my forest home. Tonight we shall share a bed as your manhoed will be put to the test. Come and walk with us!"
She took my hand and the two of us walked alone the forest path. Her boars danced around us ever looking for her view and a smile.
