STONES

An ancient God…

Looked down at his two sons sleeping.

He tried to swallow but a lump of sorrow got stuck in his throat. It was his first time leaving them, for he had no choice. He had been called to a secret counsel, so, with great sadness, he kissed his sons on the forehead and went on his way.

The next day, the eldest brother was the first to wake. He went to his mother, to ask for father.

“He has left for counsel. The God’s are deciding the fate of many natural orders in the world of men,” she said proudly.
