I'm a lonely girl living in the mountains, and I make my living gathering medicinal herbs.
One morning, I bring home an injured snake.
It's so eerily beautiful, with peach-pink scales and a slender tail mottled with dark green.
It's a venomous snake.
I save it, but it repays my kindness by coiling around me in bed...
