Seely [II]—The Flower Faerie

THERE WAS NO VISIBLE SUN in this realm, Israfel noticed. The light rather came from everything all around. The plants. The mists. The surreal nature.

From the second his boots touched the damp soil, dark brown with woodsy scent and humus, he felt suddenly light. It was a kinda high—very similar to that one time he had let an Empath put her fingers through his brain. The [Artemis Touch], they called it. More like a full cup dose of Ayahuasca. Rafel did not think he'd ever feel wound up by a girl—until he had her fingers literally curling inside of his skull.

"This is a dreamlike world." He touched a gold-leaf plant.

The flower petals shrank at the pass of his thumb.

The gold in the flower vanished like that, snap! and only a dull grey remained. "The plants are alive. It senses my demonic bloodline." Rafel concluded. It was pretty easy for him to make this out, because the next plant he touched – a [Violet], pretty much screamed back out at him.
