~Fleur~

This story was a bit haunting. I was thinking in the introduction that the story had taken place during a time where demon-like figures like Fleur were on the rise! But that was definitely not the case. Fleur is the pariah of the story in which know one knows much about. In the beginning she drowns herself constantly. In the middle of the story she leaves the town seeking employment at a Butcher's shop. Towards the end she is still seen as an outcast demon-like person who then gives birth to a child, and the father is said to be either the lake itself or Misshepeshu, the evil water man. This was a spooky read that hardly made any sense to me. >.
