The breeze, it was fresh and crisp. No longer carrying the scent of flowers, it carried the scent of...spices. Just barely though... It was a wonderful scent to The Witch.
She stood outside her atelier, pale green modest neglige and crimson curls gently swaying as the winds blew past. Bare feet pitter pattered across the dew covered grass and a few stray leaves that had begun to fall and collect on the ground. It was a quiet morning, just after sunrise as the sky was starting to shift from shades of orange to pale blue. No birds were singing, even the insects deep within the woods had not awakened. Peggy was sleeping, the pumpkinheads were all dispersed and left to their own devices, most of course, probably slept... The only sound around her was the quiet flow of water in the river that ran close to her atelier, and the occasional 'crunch' of leaves beneath her feet.
Violet eyes slowly move down towards the ground. Her gaze remained there a moment before she leaned foward, plucking a leaf from the ground to study it carefully. Soon a grin was spreading across her face as her eyes danced with excitement. Leaf was cast to the winds as she laughed heartily, allowing her small frame to fall backwards onto the soft ground.
"Autumn is here~!"
With her exclamation, the woods became alive as morning took over.
The Witch laid there for a few long moments, relishing the feel of damp grass and crispy leaves... BUT! She couldn't waste time! She had a festival to prepare for! No matter what realm she happened to occupy, she simply had to have her own Harvest Festival every year during this season! It was her favorite season, it simply had to be celebrated! Not to mention, it was great for making nice with other people.
Quickly she started to pull herself off the ground, clumps of grass being gripped between fingers as she scampered on up and started running towards her atelier at full speed.
"Iiiicky~!! It's tiiiiiime~"
