The Fruits of Earth - Part 2
Tuesday, December 18, 2018
By chance, about a month ago, I’ve heard Oleya talking to another girl, mentioning something about a plant called wormwood. I didn’t get the full conversation but I was sure the subject was about blossoming. This could be it, I thought! It has to be if Oleya was using it… Ever since that moment, I concentrated all my efforts into getting this plant. I managed to acquire it a couple of weeks ago from the girl Oleya was talking with. I forced it out of her. Poor soul, she was too scared to try it herself. But not me, I would do anything to get to blossom.
I had to find myself a hiding spot to do this safely. There was an old shed in the Nursery’s backyard, at the very end of it, to the east. It is said it was haunted, so nobody had the courage to go there. I made this shed into my hiding place and visited it once a day, just before dawn, to apply my treatment. I started rubbing my legs with this plant but it seemed to have no effect. I had no idea how to use the plant, so I decided to talk to Oleya. The risk of being revealed was terrible, but I put my entire hope into this.
When I approached Oleya, she denied everything and didn’t want to talk to me. I had to threaten her with telling our supervisors what I knew. Only then she accepted to reveal her trick. She explained how to obtain the effect I wanted and I’ve started this new approach immediately. I was doing it all wrong before talking to Oleya. Just rubbing the plant on my legs had no effect. I had to cut my skin in long wavy patterns and apply a paste obtained from wormwood, sage, and henna. After this, bandaging my legs would conceal the blood and the wounds from curious eyes. The trick was not to cut so deep, just under the skin, but on very wide areas. It was painful, but it was worth it. I already see the effects: from the knee down my legs are showing the signs.
I am so happy
