cool story, nice descriptions

That’s a question that we’d all like answered.
Good Job.

Really good one.

Thanks very much y’all – glad that you like it :-)

Wonderful. My usual response to an intriguing, well-written ficlet is to immediately do a sequel. Run with it and see where it goes. But you’ve established such a strong voice for your protagonist that I don’t want to step into your sandbox.

Please write a sequel, though. I want more!

Hello cloister – thanks very much for your kind words.

I may well write a sequel to this at some point, but it won’t be this month; it needs time to percolate.
