A dryad is a Greek mythological tree nymph. They were thought to be shy creatures, except when they were around Artemis, the goddess of the hunt and the Moon.
When I was a kid, I used to love going on daily adventures into the wilderness.
I often spent hours under my favorite oak tree, mesmerized by the magic of nature, listening to the beautiful tunes of natural life and death all around me.
Those days are still vivid in my mind, and if I close my eyes and concentrate, I can still feel her presence wrapping itself around me like a scarf.
Her hands are warm, and it's a pleasant choke.
