Opal Grainwind Chapter 8
The few that survived
Coastend’s quick death
joined me at the lighthouse.
Our stores were undone
our shelter too
the village was not safe.
The decision made
we would move on
to search for a new home.
We gathered the things
that we still had,
meager supplies and such.
My lighthouse toppled
by the giant.
We slept on the ground floor.
Before the sun woke
we left Coastend
mourning our dead village.
We walked the tundra
directly south
to our closest neighbor.
Eagerly entered
Roseworm village
yet it was trampled too.
Nobody remained
to receive us
or offer any aid.
