#Tenfor2018 May Prompt
It's already a new month, I'm not sure how that happened, but I did manage to finish (and sub) a story for April.

That might seem like a pointless one, but you never know what random littel piece of information is going to worm into your brain and curl up there, feeding and growing, until eventually you realise that little thread of info has taken over your whole mind like a parasitic wyrm.

It's still feeding and growing, but I know how my writing works. I need to start putting words down and more thoughts will come to fatten up the initial idea.
Until then, find somehting that fascinates you, some weird tick of history, and turn it into a story:
