Nightfall. Darkness permeates. The stars embellish the night sky. The moon walks on its podium in a full glow.
We hear the sounds of the night creatures as we take our journey to a homeland.
We seek a serene place. We’ve waded through chaotic waters. We’ve walked through sombre days.

Absolutely loved this; so atmospheric.
Thank you, Alastair.
So evocative; quietly drawing me in such that I had to re-read it multiple times, unwilling to leave. Well done Emate.
Thank you, Farley. I’m glad you like the story.
