Wandering Adventure Party

(PS now I'm intrigued what on earth a wild woman was)

@juergen_hubert The focus of the story for me is more that the wild women didn't harm children, and needed protection from the Wild Hunt. Also, that they weren't afraid of crosses. It really is a very odd tale, even without the cave mentioned. I presume Roman Ruins were easy enough to spot but only the story tells of this cave.

@juergen_hubert I agree, and I like that you just report the tales as they are left to us. Oral traditions are very sturdy, cities rise and fall, but someone remembers a little and it's often quite accurate - where a ruin is, where a thing happened, who was there at the time and to our eyes what was important, isn't so much. Pehaps not so much a ruin in the vicinity that we can see, but a memory.

I like the cave involved too, and the quite detailed description of what the women were like.

@juergen_hubert
That's a strange one.

I just wondered, I'm thinking about making a christmas cake and suddenly remember my grandmother. I don't remember the recipe exactly, more that now I should start with soaking the dried fruits, and other things she was firm about, that everyone in the house should stir the cake, clockwise, and anyone who visited also before she baked it. She wasn't a superstitious lady, but I think this tradition might have been older than she was.
