Tuesday
morning, 1.5 mile into the woods, a girl was visiting her Grandma when a wolf
ate them both. A nearby huntsman came to their rescue and was able to save the
girl and her grandmother.
“That
wolf has been pestering me for years now,” said the Huntsman, “I’m just so
happy I was there at the right time.”
The
young girl, Elisabeth, also known as Little Red Ridinghood because of the red,
velvet, hooded cloak she dons, was lured off the trail by the devious wolf. The
wolf was able to find her grandmother’s home, devoured the elderly woman and
then dressed himself in her clothing to trick the girl once she arrived and
consumed her too. The Huntsman arrived shortly thereafter, killed the resting
wolf and then cut him open, to find the girl and her grandmother unharmed.
“They
were both pretty shaken up, and poor Grandma looked exhausted.” The Huntsman
said about the girl and Grandma’s immediate conditions. “They had all the
fixings for a nice meal – bread, fresh butter and wine – even flowers! – so I
think that cheered them up afterwards.”
Elisabeth
and her mother had baked the bread and made the butter by hand the day prior
for Elisabeth’s grandma who had fallen ill. Elisabeth had made the voyage to
her Grandma’s house “hundreds of times” according to her emotional mother, and
was going to deliver the treats.
Great blog entries, Annah. Enjoyed reading them.
