Prompt: Magnolia |  Genre: Fantasy  |  Word count: 85 words


“I... can’t...!” Runa panted.

“Just a little more, sweets. We’re almost there.”

“Where?” she hunched, breathing hard.

Einarr looked back. A raven cawed, fluttering its wings.

“We need to hurry. Come,” he pulled her up.

They jogged in silence.

“Isn’t that a raven?”

“Yes.”

“But aren’t they...”

“Yes, he is.”

Runa gasped, “What are you not telling me?”

“I’ll tell you everything. But not now. Come.”

They stepped over a small hillock and felt their jaws drop.

A giant Magnolia tree stood in full bloom.
