Something dark perhaps? Like the "Straw Goat," a little nature spirit made of twisted straw and malevolence. Or "Barelli's Demon," one man's hate and prejudice made flesh.

"Archie..." and his lures for nature spirits in Arcady, where lovemaking is a sport. "My Mother's Purse" with its contents of adult secrets to be kept from a child's eyes. Romance? Try "Brother Senchelle." Something unique? "Seasons of Ice, Fields of Winter." Something unexpected? "Moses."
