Wow, this is an incredible write-up, @agmoore. I'm so glad it was inspired by The Ink Well prompt. As one of your co-admins, I know how these ideas sometimes churn us up or get us thinking. They can brew

The poor courier! You have a great imagination and a fun storytelling style, @arduilcelebren.

Wow, I did not see that coming that she's not a human. This story feels like it could be the beginning of a novel. Did you feel inspired to continue when you got to the end? I think that is one good litmus
