oh yes. Oh hell yes. Amazing descriptions with a great plot and a nice ending. When I read the simile about nocturnal spirits, I broke into a big smile and knew this was going to be an epic read.

VERY well done.

Nicely-written, my friend. With Laz, I await chapter two.

Ooo. Haunting ending. Real, or surreal, or perhaps space bends.(hallucinations). Stay tuned for part two...lol.
Well done my friend.
