The Walled Garden

William was far too curious for his own good. 

He knew that the Walled Garden of the Manor House was private and off-limits to everyone in the village. 

Many people whispered that the lady who lived in the house was an old witch and that her secret garden was filled with the herbs she cultivated for mysterious purposes. 

Like many young men, William's curiosity got the better of him, compelling him to climb over the wall to see what lay on the other side. 

The moment he landed on the grass, both his body and mind began to change. 

He found himself transformed into a beautiful woman, a victim of the cursed garden and his own insatiable curiosity. 

Soon after, another woman entered the garden and spotted him sitting there. 

She called out to someone unseen, "We have another one." 

He was then led out of the garden and into a cosy-looking cottage, where he was put to work entertaining and pleasing the lady of the house and her elderly male friends, who sought companionship from pretty faces to spend their last days with.
