Hineni floats in a place that is rather indistinct.
“You WILL stop this game,” hisses a voice greedily in the darkness. “Hineni is mine.” Obscura.

Hineni wanders through the deep forest alone, simply unable to tell if it is night or day. The heavy, looming boughs of the trees hang heavily over his head. Their thick, old branches hold an interconnected crown aloft that is so thick and dense that to see beyond it is a simple impossibility. 2022-09-19 19:20:17 +0000 UTC View Post
Hineni stands out in the deep forest, further away from the cabin. Water shimmers before himself, catching dancing rays of moonlight. He stares down at the pond, looking at the tepid waters. Hundreds of small frogs sit all around the edge of the water or on lily pads and rocks, croaking their fro...

Let us refrain from any dogmatic terminology, brought to us via the conditionings of politics and the religious beliefs of the common folk. Let us focus solely on the pragmatic nature of the existence of witches.
Hineni stands there, looking around himself, as the scene shifts one more time.
“I waited a long time to show you this,” says a voice from behind him. “I waited a long time to tell you this.” A hand places itself onto his shoulder. “Hi~ ne~ ni~ hi~,” croaks the voice ...
