Description

 

"Falling in love with mortals is a rite-of-passage that all beings of the forest go through at some point in their life," the goddess Lalisa said, as she the glistening pomegranate. "But mortals can only live so long. We must not grief for too long when they leave us. We have to live on."

"Yes, of course, my goddess," replied the fox-girl.

Foreword

 

Inspired by folktales that I heard from my grandparents while growing up.

I decided to write it when I realised three things about the folklores that we heard from our grandparents' knees-

1. the characters are almost always so young. A lot of the stories happens when the characters come of age (though their ages are rarely specified, I'm guessing they mught have been sixteen or eighteen)

2. a lot of the stories are hopelessly romantic

3. a lot of the stories have shape-shifters
