Fantastic story. Please continue and update more often.
I like the little historical inclusions you have, such as "Seraphim" which is a messenger of God.
Can't wait until the six hikers are used to fulfill Ember's well.
Isn't the King Arthur tell of English ancestry? "Kurczyc'" is Polish roughly translated to "shrink", wouldn't "crine" be more appropriate to the language of 5-6th century A.D. English Celtics?
Author's Response:
Thank you, I always enjoy reading your reviews. I find your feedback to be well considered and thought provoking. I can tell you read my stories with detail which is appreciated. Glad you have enjoyed this and you picked up on some of my little historical inclusions like Seraphim as the messenger of God, did you notice that a number of the witches in some other parts of the Tales of Myth and Legend stories Bradb, the Irish war goddess and Morrigan, goddess of death, amongst a number of the other? Keep an eye out for these.
The hikers will be experiencing Ember's powers at some point, but one of them might not be at her mercy... hint...
King Arthur is indeed of English legend, and good spot on 'Kurczyc'. However you might notice that each of the 'eternal' witches has their own way of exhibiting their powers. For Ember it is Kurczyc, for Aqualisha it is Winzig, Morrigan (Medusa) doesn't even use language she shrinks or grows things with her eyes. Bradb can immerse herself and flow walk... and so on. Some of the witches have spread their teachings and their covens in this story, which is why some other of the more contemporary witches in each generation follow the teachings of their witch, such as a number of them shrink using Kurczyc...
Did Ember create the word first or did the Polish language? I'll let you decide :-)
