H is for Hemina. Hemina is a tree dweller from Children of the Trees, published in Liquid Imagination Magazine. Her people are peaceful and live as one with the trees their goddess has given them. They trade with the ground dwellers from time to time to get things like cloth and grains they can not get from the trees and sky.
When the ground dwellers are insprired by their god to find the female who will give birth to his physical body among the tree people, they invade. Hemina prays for help. If she is to save the world she knows from the god the ground dwellers seek to bring to life, she'll have to rely on her wits and the trees around her because her goddess isn't answering.
Likes: A soft rain, the gentle whisper of the trees, spending time with her father
Dislikes: Axes, fire, and Gods who call her Sweetling.
I really like the sound of Hemina. Nice name too.
ReplyDeleteWhy doesn't she like Sweetling? Another intriguing post, Jean.
ReplyDeleteNow this is definitely an intriguing and original premise.
