Mildew
She is like a cat in the dark and then
She is the darkness
Mildew grinned at the crowd of insects and creatures that scurried up her form, raising her arms and legs to admire them all, careful to move slowly and gently so she wouldn't hurt any of her small friends. Maybe their unified voice would be unsettling to some but it delighted her, Mildew nodding along with what they had to say with understanding. "Ah, I see...took long enough, didn't it?"
She'd have a lot to do.
"Don't you worry - I'll take care of it all. Now go and find yourselves some nice logs to sit in; looks like it'll be a hot day." Mildew instructed, reaching out her fingertips towards the ground to give the messengers a bridge to travel down and away; she would have to start right away, and as much as she wanted to spend time with the nature that had always been her home, sometimes business called.

She rules her life like a fine skylark and when
The sky is starless
