“Kikimora” by Boris Zabirohin.
Kikimora is a legendary creature, a female house spirit in Slavic mythology. Her role in the house is usually juxtaposed with that of the Domovoy, whereas one of them is considered a “bad” spirit, and the other, a “good” one. When the kikimora inhabits a house, she lives behind the stove or in the cellar, and usually produces noises similar to those made by the mice in order to obtain food. Kikimory (in plural) were the first traditional explanation for sleep paralysis in Russian folklore.
There are two different kinds of Kikimoras. The one that comes from the forest is married to the Domovoy. The other one comes from the swamp and is married to Leshy. It is said that she can be identified by her wet footprints. When home builders wanted to cause harm to someone buying a house, they would bring in Kikimora. Once she is inside, it is difficult to get her to leave.
When the house is in order, Kikimora looks after the chickens and housework. If not, she whistles, breaks dishes, and makes noises at night. She also comes out at night to spin thread.

The Foundling has updated with chapter 3: The First Song!
Tensions are high in the newly formed band Dethklok with members often at odds with one another as well as with themselves. As they struggle to get a demo tape recorded that will make or break them, the unexpected addition of a 6th member shakes everything up in ways none of them could have ever predicted.
Also, did you know The Foundling has a playlist? Carefully curated with songs that reflect the story and the feelings within. Check it out!
