The main character's transformation to a werewolf/vixen (first 2 paragraphs) is very vivd. I can totally see how her bones burst out of her fingers! Nice job! But it's a little sad that she has to abandon her family at the end :/
I was kind of envisioning her as a kind of forest sprite but instead of being green or brown like a lot are imagined to be I made her silvery and translucent. You can see her if you know she is there or if she makes herself known like she did to the woodcutters but if you don't she will blend into the forest around her.
I'm glad you liked it. It is sad that her family is lost to her but I'm kind of thinking that the last guardian the forest had was dying and she chose the little girl who loved the forest to take her place, that little girl being Alaine. One of the burdens of being a guardian of the forest though is that you will remember nothing of the life you had before. If you recall then your memories will not stay, like what happened to Alaine.
@TerryTommy,
She might. That's is why at the end I added that her memory was sparking again. I might add more to this at some point and have her be one of the first guardians to regain her memories. *Shrugs shoulders*
Who knows. I sure don't! *grins*
