There once was a woman that lived deep in the swamps of southern Louisiana. Her family having owned a fair amount of the sugar cane fields along the Mississippi, amite , and tickfaw rivers . For many generations untill In 1930 when the depression hit hard. At the tender age of 5 her mother found herself alone , husband abandoned them, blood turned them away at their doors ( for reasons that this tale will spin later i assure u ) , having nothing but the will to see her daughter survive and thrive. Alameda " Allie " Rayburn Harrison made the decision to take her only child Jubilee far away from those that refused to help even blood , but chose to instead judge and disown due to their own lack of knowledge and even worse lack of faith in the same God that had created each of them. Choosing to hide themselves deepin the pines , oaks and cedars of the swamps and rivers . , live off the lands or die trying . Only a carpet bag filled with basic survival tools , a flour sack of vegetable seeds and herbs of all varieties that her Houma Indian medicine woman grandmother had taught her about without her own mother's knowledge. The only things her never to be seen or heard from again husband had left behind , 2 goats , 6 laying Hens a rooster ,and a very sick but stubborn to survive Female jersey milking cow that God willing she'd survive the birth of the calf she currently carried. One of the (( what shall we say had to be THE bule ribbon in STUPIDITY )) donkey that she herself had rescued out of the rivers swift current the previous years hurricane season .. loving named OMEN Banshee . (( Till the day he died , and like clockwork)) that would always find himself in some body of water or river current braying loudly for rescue. just before something bad happened, ((some sort of sickness or a death of a family member .))
$3 in nickels , 2 lbs flour and less then a pound sugar. 5 lbs of rice ((Jubilee's favorite, her mother swore that child could survive on eggs over rice and a cup milk if you'd let her , ((EAT HER WEIGHT IN IT DAILY AND WAKE UP FOR MORE BEFORE DAWN )) 🤣 Putting faith in one hand and shear will of a god in the other .
Heads held high. Walking with the sun on their face, never looking back . For what felt like weeks on her bare feet untill a great spirit inside Allie screamed stop . You are home cher make your roots here Find your child safe here . And never leave , mother earth will never abandon you again . And with that a wing and a prayer. They settled in the area we today know as Tangiphoa Parish, Tickfaw Louisiana. Built themselves the " shimmy shack "" as it was called later due to the floor boards having a bounce when ya walked too fast to the fire place made of river rock n clay mud . That's is the still within the home till this day being the heart of that safe place she had created and only expanded on over the years . As well as Jubilee who continues to do almost a full 95 years later. No intentions of stopping till she finds her husband (now missing 30 years , only thing left behind of him being his boots that she still wears )) or the good lord sees fit and calls her home . Fighting for her scantuary no matter how hard , that crazy millionaire and his mad scientist pet. buying up her swamp , trying to run her off what her momma gave her . Desperate to break her hold and bond and vow to protect . Not for her even . But from what they have yet to learn . That she is indeed protecting them and every living soul residing on the earth from . That lurks just beyond the grove. And still imortally dwelling deep within a cave with no mountain attached. of unnatural origins and very cursed , lack of better word. portal to hell itself that rises from fogs of the dry river bed every 6th hunters moon . 🌙 only thought to be tale that parents told their younguns to keep them out the woods or scare them into behaving.
Don't go exploring them woods under that full moon children , for if you do the Swamp Coven witches will steal your soul , forever turning you into stone of the cave . And once those witches have enough souls HE WILL RISE AGAIN .
And up till that damn mad man arrived Jubilee had been successful in her efforts . Only age and failing eyesight has slowed her down . The knowledge that her 101st birthday just may be her last, she must find a strong enough and brave enough young soul in her bloodline to learn the old ways and hold them scared . To save us all. Will Jubilee Harrison Fontenot make it in time. Will the spirit world be at her side and the ancestors behind her keeping her alive long enough till the young girl she has dreamt about as of late runs into her home seeking shelter from the monstrous deeds that mad scientist has been up to in secret for far too long .or Will 2026 be the year HE RISES FROM BELOW TO SWALLOW THE WHOLE OF THE EARTH .
may her mother's spirit protect her as the 6th Hunters moon begins to rise and Fog rolls in .
