Deep Forest
I had a dream last night.
I was at the edge of an old forest in Oregon. Wood Elves came out in a double file; sombre warriors, clad in browns, greens and red. They called me to come with them and two of them took me in to be fitted with gear and weapons.
I told them they had the wrong guy: I’m forty, I’m feeble, I’m no warrior, I have a wife and kids to take care of. With a look I knew the response.
I know the deep forest. I have been there.
