The Legend of The Word Witch:

The Word Witch offering wasn’t just some service—it was a whole vibe, a lifeline for writers stuck in the mud or totally out of ideas. Her name? Always whispered, like a secret you weren’t sure you should know. The word on the street was that she could pull characters out of thin air, revive dead plots, and patch up sentences like magic—all with her ink-smudged, slightly spooky hands. People at the pub would spend entire nights swapping stories about writers who’d hit rock bottom—former prodigies crushed by their own ambition—who somehow found their way to her cottage of talents. They’d crawl in, desperate and defeated, and come out glowing, clutching manuscripts that suddenly felt alive again. Apparently, she worked out of a hidden room in some old cottage, behind what looked like a shelf full of dusty grammar books that smelled like sage and roses. And here’s the thing—it wasn’t just anyone who could find her. If your draft wasn’t a total disaster, or the metaphors hadn’t completely fallen apart, you wouldn’t even notice the crafter existed.

What actually happened during those consultations? Nobody ever spilled the details. But you could always spot the aftermath. Authors who’d been hiding from the world showed up again, spinning wild, otherworldly stories, dropping phrases so sharp and strange they gave you goosebumps. Even the grumpiest critics couldn’t help but get hooked by sentences that felt like they were crackling with something alive. Rumors about her payment? Oh, they were wild. Some said she’d only take a poem written in blood. Others swore she wanted your deepest secrets, your most fragile memories, or maybe even the last word of some long-dead language. Spooky, huh?

But still—if the legend was true, she was worth it. For anyone who’d lost their spark, she was the way back. Sure, the price was... weird. But no one ever seemed to regret it.
