KESTREL’S NOTEBOOK. DO NOT TOUCH!!!! Grabbers:
A grabber chooses a victim from the village.
It stalks them for days, or weeks, or even years.
They build a bodie body from things they find + steal. They take the form of whatever their victim is most scared of.
THEN THEY ATTACK.
Get them where they’re weak, e.g. the heart.
People eaten: |||| |||| |||| |||| |||| |||| ||| Grabbers killed by Kestrel: |||| |||| |||| ||
The endless forest was as dark as the back of a wolf’s throat, and it was filled with countless horrors.
Cats with too many eyes. Dogs with teeth as long as knitting needles. Ravenous birds with razor-tipped feathers.
And that was only the beginning. Every night, all of the people who lived in the forest’s only village slammed their doors, pulled the sheets up to their chins, and crossed their fingers that they would survive till morning.
Well. All except one.
Kestrel had been lurking in the branches of a moonlit tree since sundown. It was the Hungry Hour, the time before sunrise when the forest was darkest and most dangerous. Here she was, a ready-made monster meal, completely and utterly alone.
