“His world rocked. Lying in the bottom of the boat, too spent and dehydrated to move, the prince peered through swollen, slitted eyelids at a point midway along the gunwale.He was hallucinating now, seeing things. For there could be no other explanation, surely, for the four wet fingers hooked over the side of the boat.”
Word: Long. It made me think of Aqua-Ossian’s fingers.... as he is revealed to still be alive... and yet not alive,,,
I decided to start Inktober and am combining the daily theme with scenes and images from Justin D’ath’s really cool YA(?) novel Shaedow Master. Bit of a rare find outside AU I guess. If you haven’t read it, I would recommend giving it a go, you can probably find it real cheap anywhere nowadays. If you like your relevant social class and conservation themes wrapped in a shiny little package, go for it.
