The Beginning: A Guarding the Vila Novelette

For every step in the right direction,
There’s one that lingers in the dark.

Forgive the stability of my expression,
But the truth stands still inside the spark.

For what you know cannot be true,
There’s a different path in sight.

Don’t worry, history doesn’t blame you,
It just wants to set the tale right.

The wolf was real, the girl a sham,
Real humanity in the village was kept.

The hunger inside is quite grand,
So you better watch your step.
