The Unwell

Book

The Unwell by Emma Nematode

A poison once spread throughout the land. A poison so foul, the people who drank the waters containing it were filled with hatred and bloodlust.

One day, a Fae called Miffin Muffin was travelling through the swamp when he came across a cave filled with bones and a dark well. He tasted the water to quench his thirst but spat it out instantly, where it withered the moss in the cave.

"This will not do! This will not do indeed!" he is said to have said.

So the gnome returned home to Tir Na Nog, collected the purest water, and returned.

When he poured it into the well, there was a glow, and the water was now fresh and cleansed and delicious and yum.

Miffin Muffin skipped happily out of the cave, bumped into Daddy Long Legs, and was never seen again.
