The title doesn't lie: This is a story about a young writer and an old witch who meet on a lonely road that winds towards the New Capital. Actually, they meet there twice. The first time, there's a curse involved. The second time—you'll have to read and find out. It all adds up to about 4,000 words—perfect as a train read or an after-dinner fable. (Didn't you hear? Doctors recommend after-dinner fables.)
