Who: Melinda and Open When: Tuesday evening Where: Walking around the streets What: Melinda is frightened that she was found out cause she heard walking in the woods where she was trying out a spell. Status/Rating: Ongoing/PG-13ish Warnings: Just an emotional Melinda.
Melinda had been in the forest working on a spell that she had been working on in private. She had a stash of some herbs and had started a fire and had closed her eyes as she was repeating the words over and over. Making sure that there was nobody that would be watching, she knew that if she was being followed she could be killed for witchcraft. It wasn't that she was trying to kill anyone, she wanted to explore what her magic could do.
As she was standing and took off her cloak, and set it aside, she opened up the piece of paper and wanted to make the fire bigger, so she started to recite the words she had written down. Suddenly, she heard a noise. Melinda began to shake, should she stop or should she continue on? She continued on because she wanted to see if she could do it. Reading the paper once more she put the paper down and recited the words from memory. Just then the fire got bigger and her eyes widened. That's when she heard more noises. This scared Melinda to the point where she put the fire out and grabbed her cloak, running out of the woods, she put the hood up and just started walking.
Walking down the street, she was going through the crowd of people. Tears coming down her face and shaking. She began to wonder. Was she discovered? If she was discovered and caught as a witch, she would lose her life. This scared her because she was still young and didn't want to die. She then found some space up against a building, putting her head back, closing her eyes and breathing. Maybe she was just losing her mind.
