  1. #Airisu: The Crow and the Witch

    Okiku Omen (Sumika POV): Post 31
    #Wss366 Kindle

    As soon as I found Airisu a place to roost and went to bed myself, I fell into a sleep as deep as a well.

    Once again, I found myself in a stranger’s body. This time, the sky was nothing but a circle above. Stone walls encircled me. But I paid no attention to that; my focus was on a set of plates that hovered in the air.

    “One plate…”

    “Two…”

    I was cold, so cold. Water lapped around my waist, numbing the bruises from a beating. The weight of my waterlogged kimono threatened to drag me into the dark depths.

    “Three…”

    “Four…”

    “Five…”

    The moon hung above in an ice-black sky.

    “Six…”

    It was a sphere, not unlike the white china plates that passed through my hands.

    “Seven…”

    “Eight…”

    Smooth, flawless plates, beautiful like a woman’s skin with fine blue lines like veins.

    “Nine…”

    “Caw, caw!” I looked up, my counting interrupted. On the rim of the well perched a crow. The moon #kindled a violet fire around its silhouette. “Caw, caw! Wait! She is coming,” it said, then croaked out three lines of verse:

    Muddy lotus
    The water purify
    Fragrant dawn sun

    Then it departed as the water swallowed me once again.
