What sounds best?
1 - It was the shadows here that held sway.
or
2 - It was shadow here that held sway.
@iaincmgray context? lyrics, or written piece? Without further context, I think "It was" weakens the whole thing.
"The shadows here held sway, illimitable dominion over all."
(ok, that last part was Poe). 😁
@silent_dystopia: Linking to Poe is good.
It's a line of prose from the novella I'm working on.
It's horror, obvs.
@iaincmgray i had a feeling. :) nothing quite like good horror prose, i miss my writing. hope to get back to it soon. been adrift on the gasping ocean, no oar nor rudder to guide me back to literary shores.
