Out of the mist there appeared an otherworldly, beautiful and seductive resident of the mires. Was she a fairy, was she a woman, or was she a half transparent spirit who had come to visit this abandoned house in his dreams ? He could see her dancing on the mires, drifting through the house with the wind in her hair, touched by the darkness and the light, but as mysteriously as she appeared she disappeared across the water, but her figure was etched in his minds eye.
