The first transformation was small: she could climb better, scale the manor’s low walls with fingers that remembered new holds. Her voice gained a silver edge, and with it a confidence that made the tailor unintentionally spill his measurements. People began asking favors of her—fetch this, speak to that neighbor—and she obligingly did more than asked. Her mother’s stitches tightened into new patterns, and Lina found some coins in the hem of a coat where she had never seen them before.

Each night Lina returned to the willow and to the chrysalis she kept beneath her pillow, and each morning she discovered some old habit slipping away. She stopped counting peas. She forgot the names of distant cousins.

Lina pressed the chrysalis to her heart and slept beneath the willow. In the night the branch’s humming braided with some older thing inside her; she dreamed of crawling and of warm sun and of the river’s patient attention. When she woke, her hands were callused, her hair unruly—nothing at first seemed different. But the village took notice. Seeds stuck to her skirts like promises.
