An image of a field with trees and a wooden fence with the words "The stories about Familiars never mention how their deaths can linger in the air like the way one’s heart pounds after a nightmare even upon waking, or how a bad brew’s aftertaste is still there in the back of one’s throat despite a sip of water." and #firstlinefriday

The procession of elders lasted all day. They arrived singly, passing through the lemon grove and down the cliff stair. As soon as one elder returned to the grove and disappeared through the veil, another arrived. Sandro knew why they came.

#FirstLineFriday '"How could I let this happen?
Thirty thousand feet in the air, I knew better than to interrogate myself like this.'
From Chapter One of The Wholehearted Way by Dr. Peace Amadi!
“The train was
rocking through
wide open country
before Elsa was able to
put off the misery of leaving
and reach out for the freedom
and release that were hers now.”
