Entry 4: 'The Faceless One'

'Hush, thy childe, do not stray far from the path,

or The Faceless One shall steal you away to Fairieland

He prays on sinful and defiant souls, 

and lurks within the woods.

He has hands of ebony branches,

and a touch as soft as silk.

Fear The Faceless One thy childe,

for he shall take you to a dark place.

And what shall become of thou?

Noone knows, so be good, thy little one-

Alas! Here he is here to take thou away!

- 18th century Welsh lullaby

better not tell this to the kids..

That lullaby is certainly strange... I'm really enjoying this work. the different format of each chapter is very clever way to get the story over, and keep the reader captivated.

That's one heck of a creepy lullaby! lol. I like this book, can't wait to see what happens next! :)

It's probably catchier in Welsh :p. Thanks for reading!
