This was another of my early picture prompts. And just like Draconic Bargain, the image that served as the inspiration for this tale came from Facebook. I would have provided a link to the image, yet once again I’m learning that Facebook links have a limited time to live. That said, I’ll do my best to describe the sight from memory. Well, at least I’ll do my best since I only remember a single portion of the picture.

With a full moon shining brightly, we’re treated to a typical witch flying across the sky. I can’t remember how much detailed the witch was drawn in. But the mood of the midnight flight made me think of a World War II bomber heading to strafe their latest target. While this bomber story flowed into my mind, I needed to anchor it with the image. So I married the concept of witches escorting the bomber to help protect it from their enemy’s defensive spells.

However, once again, I’m not able to share the image that sparked my imagination. Don’t forget to like comment and subscribe to help get spread this story and the channel.
