    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura

    Hi, I'm new.
    #4
    This was my first steal in literally years, so sorry it didn't go quite as smoothly as I would have hoped. :/
    I'm not very good at this, so feedback would be appreciated!

    I watched from up high, a smile curving my mouth as the warm glow from the houses in the bowl <b>[watched from up high, mountains, houses in the bowl - bowl shaped valley surrounded by mountains - The Valley]</b> flickered across my face; everything I loved was burning down and I had never felt so happy, the way their blood mingled with the mud made me feel quite sappy. 'They'll hang me for this,' <b>[Hang me for this - hanging, gallows - Gallows]</b> I thought, the smile growing wider still; I watched as the metal rooster fell and the barn collapsed, next was the old dairy mill <b>[old dairy mill - Fennick means dairy farm]</b>. I heard their screams, oh how they screamed, I relished in their tears; a boy whose name had no meaning <b>[if you look up the meaning for Rhonan, the name has no meaning]</b>, a pendant dangling from my neck <b>[if you google the name Rhonan, Rhonan pendants are on the first page]</b>, I stood up tall and bade goodbye to them all before I turned my back.  I disappeared in the marsh <b>[Fennick also means "fen or marsh"]</b>, never to be seen or heard from again, though I often thought 'oh why not?' before I came to my senses--those people would string me up by the neck <b>[string me up by the neck, hanging, gallows - Gallows]</b>. No, I wouldn't go back to the corrie <b>[a corrie is a cirque - a half-open steep-sided hollow at the head of a valley or on a mountainside - The Valley]</b>; I left my troubles there, they've been dead for years, and I have never once been sorry.

    Rhonan from Fennick and Gallows of the Valley (posted before Demian officially became King), for a quick friendly visit.
