The Way to the Hearth




Exhausted and scared, you stumble over a root and slump against a gnarled tree trunk. The evening's dying light barely allows you to see the treacherous peat bog to your right, and hardly penetrates the dark, thick forest that stretches on and on to your left. Your stomach is growling, and the ankle that you turned earlier while picking through the bog is aching. Despite your best efforts, you're beginning to lose hope in ever seeing civilization again. Just as you're curling into a damp, shivering ball on the forest floor, something catches your eye through the trees: a bright, warm glow, brilliant in the gloaming. It moves towards you, then away again, and pauses as if waiting. You recall immediately the frightening legend of the will-o'-the-wisp, and stumble to your feet and begin to back away. But now the glow is approaching again, bounding through the gloom on silent paws, and you see it take the form of a graceful animal with warm, luminous eyes. It moves away, and you follow. What other options do you have? It leads you through the black woods for what feels like a mile or more, never getting too far ahead, its curious glow now the only source of light. Finally, to your great relief, new lights appear in a clearing ahead of you, and the sound of laughter reaches your ears. You're still halfway convinced that you're imagining things when the beautiful smell of cooking stew hits you, and you know that somehow, you've made it after all.




For as long as anyone can remember—longer, in fact, perhaps even further into the past than the ancient little town's oldest legends reach—the wild woods and bogs in this corner of Ireland have been home to a benevolent guide. Sometimes she takes the form of an animal halfway between a fox and a hound, sometimes of one of the great antlered Irish elk of an age long past, and, every once in a while, of a woman with long, wild hair. But she always appears to lead lost travelers through the dangers of the wilds to the safety and warmth of the village in the woods. There are many legends about her origins, but the villagers have always called her Eolai, meaning 'holder of knowledge,' or 'guide.' For she is the lantern in the dark, burning brightly through the ages, and will be there as long as the great woods still stand and the endless bog still stretches into the sunset.
