How To Whistle With A Blade Of Grass Novels & Stories

The train's horn blared as it zipped through the tunnel, disappearing into the pitch-blackness for a brief moment before emerging into the blinding light. Willow peered out the window and observed the passing view, the dust that briefly flowed and then settled, the trees and their leaves that appeared to be waving goodbye, the farmer's fields, and one or two stray children who appeared small in her view. She observed a man standing in a field, watching the passing train. She would only ever see his silhouette, and never his face.

“Insolent fool!” Her hands snapped into black thin strips and elongated toward Grip’s direction, attacking randomly. Grip turned around slashing his scythe in the air releasing a huge curve of light and hit all the strips bursting it to fire flakes. The flakes stayed in place, floating in the air. Grip raised his hand and snapped his fingers turning the flakes into ashes. Cold wind blew sweeping all the ashes away.

I stopped in the middle of the field between the cabin and the woods, and scrunched my toes into the blades of soft grass beneath me, savoring the tickle that each blade left upon my feet. I closed my eyes as the cool breeze gently stroked my face and swept through my hair. I inhaled deeply taking in the fresh scent of the trees that was carried along on the wind as it hurried past me. I then aggressively threw my arms out and shot open my eyes, letting out my full power as I screeched up into the sky and ascended.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. The sound of her whip cutting through the air resonated in the empty forest. She had a blindfold over her eyes so she could rely on her hearing sense instead. Her mind was occupied as she practised using the silver whip coated in wolfsbane with silver spikes and a scorpion tail tip. Her movement was like a dance, following the rhythm of the forest and her heartbeat. If only her thoughts were as serene as the training.

A thought popped into her mind, and she swung off the backpack, unzipping one of the outer compartments. Blake had tucked an orange plastic whistle into the pocket. At the time, Jackie had rolled her eyes, but now it seemed worth a shot. She brought it to her lips and blew a shrill blast. Afterward, she listened as hard as she could, but all she heard was the wind. Before she put the whistle back in the backpack, she tried once more, blasting three times. Stupid idea, she thought to herself.

They appear in chapter 44 that created a moment for Vlash and Riri in a cave. Hoowlere- A magical whistle made of wood that if it is blown it gives a soothing melody that when activated the one who embedded magic in it will be summoned by the one who blow the whistle.

He pressed his hand against the knife swinging at his waist and didn't stop until he reached the hillside. There they were. A patch of thistles, silvery-white petals edged with pale purple, swaying in the wind. He crouched and chose the largest one, cutting its stem with the knife. The blade was so sharp the cut was perfectly clean. He held the thistle up to his eyes, the petals trembling slightly beneath his fingertips. Then he gripped it tight and ran back.

Wherever the blades passed, the air seemed to tear, emitting a piercing screech. Cloudwalker's expression remained unchanged. He waved his fly whisk, and the golden light surged, the whisk's threads tracing graceful arcs in the air like golden chains, wrapping around each incoming black energy blade. With a flick of his wrist, the fly whisk snapped, instantly purifying the blades into wisps of black smoke that dissipated into the air.

The moonlight caught the edge of the blade, making it glow like a silver tooth. He started to wail, a long, thin sound that cut through the night. "Shhh," I whispered, mocking the way a mother might talk to a child. I swung the blade. The sound was wet. There was a sudden spray of warmth against my hand. I stood back up and wiped the blade on a clump of moss. The man on the ground stopped making noise. The woods went back to being quiet, save for the distant shouts of my friends further down the hill.

You can do it my little flower. My mothers voice whispered sweet encouragement to me as I raised the sword up, placing a hand on its flat side as it pointed to the sky. The song I had picked started out slow with barely any beat to allow me the chance to set myself up and reveal my little surprises. A second later I turned the sword quickly and struck the earth, burying a good third of the blade. Then, with both hands resting on the hilt, I took a sharp step back, stomping my foot onto the ground. That little motion was my signal to myself and I pulled at my inner fire, calling it into place the second my foot hit the dirt.
