Finch stared numbly out at the vast expanse of red. It was nothing like the peaceful meadows of Avalon, where the green grasses swayed pleasantly in the high summer heat. The orchard had bloomed and fruited early thanks to the high heat. Everyone would be preoccupied with the harvest. She should be home, dragging baskets beneath heavy tree boughs, joking with Jay and keeping a watchful eye on her father and mother while they dozed. Her heart seized in her chest. There it was again, she was forgetting herself. She didn't want to go home. If she did, she'd be left alone with her thoughts. At least in this strange land the dim, eerie light seemed to mirror what she felt inside: listless. Strange. No longer belonging to anywhere. Finch heaved a sigh and set her sights lower to the ground, keeping an eye out for any interesting vegetation as she ambled along between the spires that stretched with muted violence towards the heavens. Their tips looked sharp, but only a determined bird could reach them. Everything here was muted, she noticed - even those very birds seemed to avoid the skies here. All of the other animals knew better to keep away. So why am I still here? |
