Darting quickly, the thin white spirit circled the three women conversing, It's ethereal streamer-like body flowing through the branches and vines in bright flashes as it bobbed in and out among the delicate flowers.

Once past the stairs, he continued through the hall that made up the silk-screened porch, then deeper into the dusty building that had been his home for over a century.
