"The unmistakable sound of hooves on the stone floor". "Steam rose from its muzzle in the cold air." "the daemon hissed." "The daemon laughed, a dull rumble " This is just such excellent writing, Tom, spare, evocative, deep. You use onnly the words that are needed, no extraneous detail. So refreshing.

Thanks Sharron! I wrote this as an exercise in brevity, I wanted to see how much world I could build in... whatever it is. 250 words? I am pleased with it, and I'm glad you enjoyed it too.
