I watched the fog roll down the hills & fill the valley. Stuffing & suffocating the sounds. Chilling the warmth of the day & creeping into the houses.
Hearths burned bright & quilts were pulled tight. They did nothing, this wasn't just a fall blanket. This went deeper to the darkest corners of the valley. A chill breath from a forgotten god. A dieing sigh rippling around the barns & coops, washing over the houses & souls hiding within.
