Very interesting to see you writing prose, Bardi! Well done. :D It's interesting how you bookend the very fantastical middle section with more modern scenes; it makes me wonder what's happened in the interim. Will you be coming back to this story to fill in the gaps? :)

I usually include concrit in my comments as well, so I think if you were to look at this again you can take care with your pacing (the look shared between the main character and the old woman is very long-winded) and also just neaten up some of your sentences for missing words and other easily fixable typos.

This was a great piece from you, good luck!
