Wickan widow

‘Flies! Oh, spirits bellow–flies…
The swarm grew closer, a flapping, tumbling nightmare.
The horsewife screamed in wordless anguish, as if giving voice to a thousand grieving souls. Releasing the widow's wrist, she fell to her knees.
The young woman's heart hammered with sudden realization.
No, not flies. Crows. Crows, so many crows-Deep within her, the child stirred.’
