<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 562467, member: 5833"]The crossbow was making me think Switzerland, or an alpenist at any rate. She appears to be holding out a flower to him, so I even looked at a weird story by a Berthold Auerbach called 'Edelweiss' because the site where I found it mentioned said there was a mythology that the flower grows at such altitudes only the bravest & hardiest can find it. Thought she might be an oread, a mountain nymph; she may still turn out to be something that way, spirit of something.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
