Forgers of the Strewn Sky
Amali joined the circle of people gathered in the field. They all joined hands. She felt something stir within her. The Joiner began to hum. The people, having done this many times joined in. The tune was slow and sad. The Elegy of Tellurian Unmade is the song. The Joiner began to sing the words while the others continued to hum, in harmony now. Amali was to focused on getting her part right to listen to the words but she was sure they spoke of a sad world. A world yet to be born. The sky the womb. And after the song finished and the group vegan to talk and disperse, Amali was certain that she had helped work toward the end of the suffering of the world. To help it be born.
