That was not at all what I expected and that was absolutely lovely. It reads like an old folk ballad, only it twists in a completely new direction.

Gosh, this story made me feel like I was a part of the forest as well. Somehow I felt like I could feel what the forest feels. That i was drip-drip-dripping dew too. The whole thing was so pretty I couldn't put it down and basically read it in one sitting.
I wish it were a rainy day read with a view of nature, that would have been absolute bliss.
