A grieving character
Grief comes in many different forms and is displayed in a variety of ways, and our reads will reflect that. Any type of loss that a character is grieving works toward this prompt. It is up to you to decide how central to the story you want the theme of grief and loss to be, and whether the character is a primary or secondary character.
