And now for something completely different!
I was going to have this be chapter 3, but chapter 2 ran long- so I could either make it a really huge chapter (twice as long as all my other chapters) or make it two (which I did). I wanted this to be as early in the book as possible for two reasons:
1. I wanted to make it clear that there were two main characters for the reader to follow.
2. I wanted to get all of the really silly things said as quickly as possible so that the reader could get over them.
So yes, my fairies are from Atlantis. Don't say I didn't warn you.
Also, Leif Ericson, Vineland and the Abenaki are all real and historical. Look them up and you will learn both where and when these events take place! =D

The Quest: Chapter 3
I blame the delay for this chapter on the holidays. It took myself and my beta readers forever to get around to this, mostly my second grammar checker (you know who you are), who just now finished it and sent it to me. Meanwhile she has chapter 4 on her plate and chapter 5 is in the hands of my first grammar checker.
This chapter had a revision right after I finished chapter 5- as it turns out all of my friends can tell me at length the difference between a kitsune and a tanuki but not a single one of them knows what a medicine bag is. So I had to add a paragraph to explain and foreshadow. And I did not want to foreshadow the bag. *sigh* Oh well.
My favorite part about this chapter? The next chapter- because it focuses on a new character! You don't get to find out what happens to Seraph until chapter 5! HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA!
I've always wanted to do that.

Into the Woods
This story holds the title of 'first completed story by me' if one doesn't include the 'What She Has' trilogy, and 'True Story' then it is also, the ONLY completed story by me.
And it be full of smut.
I wish I could remember when I wrote this, it has to be at least two years old. Oh well.
