There is magic. I have never doubted it. When I saw my first exorcisim, I couldn't believe what I was seeing. It really didn't appear possible to be taken by a deomon. Demons are not for real. The other night, running through the close boughs of the forest, the fingers picking at my clothing; the bugs biting through skin and into vessels, I caught sight of several irridescent beetles darting several steps off the trail in a small bright clearing.

I changed my course, away from the strong river, and came upon wild mushrooms formed in a circle. The bugs were gone and the trees were still. Even the birds had decided to zip their mouths.
