Read part one here and part two here. “Granma!” the boy yelled running up to a withered old woman. “Tell me a story!” “Calm down, calm down,” she laughed. “I’m not as young as I once was. Now sit down and tell me which story you want to hear.” “The one about the earth,” the…
If you missed part one, find it here. The leaves crunched beneath her feet as Lady Terra walked through the forest. She paused when she reached its end.
