Revenant cursed grove

Hugo bounded across the valley, coming to an abrupt stop near the edge of the shadowy grove. "Forward a few more steps, Hugo," Coulter said.


The golem leaned forward, trembling. He rocked back, and the shaking stopped. Slowly Hugo lifted a leg. As he tried to move it forward, he began to shudder.


"Enough, Hugo," Coulter said. "Set us down."


"What's the deal with Hugo?" Seth asked.


"Just as most magical creatures cannot enter the yard back at the house, Hugo cannot enter this grove. There is an unseen boundary here. The ground is cursed. Fortunately, as mortals, we can go wherever we choose."
