“He asked me if I was a white vulp.” her words were coming easier now and she did not hesitate or stutter.

from a story invented only to frighten children. Fear gripped her. She focused on moving forward hoping to escape the city as soon as possible.

The line before her continued its slow march, moving forward with determined and inexorable purpose. Then it happened. Something or someone touched her shoulder. She jumped letting out a small cry at the same time. She turned to see a tall cloaked figure regarding her quietly.
