I looked out at the shifting land and thought to it, Run wild, my love.
And the world came unsewn.

Heartbreaking.
I write about the vast mauve-shadowed canyons that appear only at dusk, about the nameless animals that leave behind golden scales and silver feathers, about the stars that shift their pearled patterns every night. Those pages I burn in the evenings, translating them into the cryptic language of ash and char.
***
And, in the end, to be granted a lonely grace. To be freed, and know the cost of it.

What a breath of fresh air this was. Too short, I wish there was more. But it was heart wrenching and you’re easily drawn in (which is what all stories really aspire to do, have you walk with their characters as they wander into conflict and puzzles and break free again, growing and changing and becoming something else). Loved the wild land, cried at Iras gift. Hated Clayton, as appropriate. Wish there was more of this to devour.
