Willa of the Wood
This story features a young Faeran, or “night spirit” who is a thief called a jeatter named
Willa. She is one of the woods. One night while stealing from a human home, Willa gets
in an accident. And the same person who accidentally wounded Willa, tries to help her.
When Willa gets to her clan, she finds a terrible secret. Children are trapped in prison.
Willa meets one boy, Iska, and runs away. When she gets to the meeting hall, Willa finds
out an even darker secret. When Willa hurts her leader, the padaran, she runs away and
is cast out of the clan. But, Willa’s mamaw/grandma, is killed. With no one to take care
of Willa, and the woods being chopped down, along with being cast out, Willa goes to
the man who tried to show her kindness. After living with him a while, Willa finds that
Iska, the boy she had met in the prison, is the man’s son. Along with two others.
Determined to save Iska and the other two, she finds herself not only saving the
three children, but all the others trapped in the miserable place. Then, Willa is captured
by her own kind and brought before the padaran. Willa confronts him. Then, the
padaran accidentally burns down Willa’s home. When Willa goes out to find other faeran,
they reject her. Having no one to go to, she finds the children she meant to set free,
and returned them to their father. And, to Willa’s surprise, is accepted to their family.
