The sun sets on twenty drunken college students dancing in the cabin, with bass deep enough to shake the stone circle nearby.
It’s a great success. It’s my cabin after all, an inheritance from my grandmother, the one who gave me this old necklace.
The party spills outside around midnight. Dozens, then scores of men and women gyrate among the stones to the pounding music that is now coming from the ground itself.
The sun rises on me, naked except for Grandma’s old necklace. I’m alone in the stone circle, beer cans mingled with mead cups and carved drinking horns.

Something tells me she didn’t explain the bit about Grandma’s necklace to the drunken college students, hm. But hey, sounds like it was a real life-changing bash!

That’s one party I’m glad I didn’t go to, David. Good one.

Geez that escalated quickly. hehe Something tells me Grandmother’s necklace played a part in the festivities. Hehe

Oh I think there is magic going on… maybe you can only survive protected by that necklace… and it sounds like it has happened before.

Wow, some party. Surely, you invited me? My invitation must have gotten lost in the mail.

Scary party!

Now THAT’S a frat party … if you’re Gomez and Morticia on their reunion.
Sorry I had to turn down the invite but Russell didn’t seem to be invited. 😀

They must have been dancing the time warp. I love the pace and feel of this, and the magical motif of the necklace. Interesting article too – thanks.

Looks like some of the locals, really old locals, came to join in and the others went back with them. Somewhere there must be a time portal. I don’t mind a bit not having been invited. Well done, David 🙂 — Suzanne

Thanks Suzanne. There is a few ways you could interpret this, I’m sure. My thought was these were fairy folk that came over to dance with them.

Oh this is great, and now we know how stone circles come into being. 🙂

Don’t go out dancing after midnight on the enchanted moors, I guess.
