Description 'As I sat by the window and watched the mist roll in from the mountains I couldn’t help but think back to when I was a little girl. My mother would come to my side, pull up a chair from the table and watch it with me. I miss being that young, when nothing worries you and you believe anything your mother tells you for, when you think about it, why would she lie?
She would take a moment to observe the mist, waiting until the majority of the mountains were completely obscured from view then she would sigh contently and tell me a story.
The story was about a sort of magic, it sounds silly to me now that I’m grown but back then it was mesmerizing. She would say that the mist came down to cover the mountains so that the spirits that lived up there could light their lamps and move about completely undisturbed. They made the mist she said, they need to hide because so many of them have been stolen by people for their magical powers and knowledge. The mist not only gives them cover but it acts as an enchanted void, causing anyone who steps into it to become lost forever, unless they take pity on you and guide you back home.
She told me to never leave the house when the mist rolls too far and enters our town in the valley of the mountains for when that happens, the spirits are coming down to visit and they must not be disturbed. Otherwise, they will take you back to the mountains with them and you’ll never be seen again.
A ridiculous story, I know she only told me it to stop me going out and playing in the fog but back then I couldn’t help but try to look past the mist to where the tops of the mountains where and wonder if there really were buildings up there with spirits living with in.'

I like the story. It would make an interesting short comic

I like him, too. Sort of reminds me of Luke Valentine from Hellsing. His hair must be a pain to wash, though. Does it drag along the ground when he walks?

i'm absolutely shite at comics XD so i've been writing it as a sort of short story i have no time to think about it though XD so it's going really slow ;

And no it just doesn't hit the ground lol but when he's out in the gardens or in the woods he still manages to get twigs and leaves caught in the tips Glad you like him though you always think my characters look like someone else xD *goes to look up said hellsing character*

If it's any consolation, my characters look like someone else, too. The Freak looks like Freddy Krueger, Pumpkin Jack is basically an evil version of Jack Pumpkinhead from Return to Oz, etc
