Beneath Calm Waters
In an almost cinematic scene, the clouds were slowly moving through the dark and blueish sky. The weather is clear to the extent that it feels un-natural. Standing on the shores, looking at the small part of the sea that divides the town in two halves. The half where everyone is at. And the other unknown half with hills all over the place, and people from a different culture that we only know little of. The distance is not far. But, there are so many stories about this sea.
Standing next to the most recent broken boat, looking across to the other half. Wondering, could it be true? Could it be true what is said about this sea? There is something creepy that probably hides beneath the calm sea waters. It remains unanswered and unsolved riddle. So much of darkness is hidden within the beauty of this place. The last of the brave men had given up on crossing the sea. Leaving the rest of the people in town with questions about the place. Just like so many things around them. Maybe, only time will tell and one day will uncover all of this mystery.
It looks like a shiny day and that boat not very good to cross an ocean with. Now I am more curious about the one who owned it or better the one who used it, than the sea.
Perhaps the sea had it with humans disturbing it's peace and littering or who knows those who tried do 't have the right skills.
The title and end make your story a good and intriguing one.
I often get unique story-related questions. It's good to take ideas for more details to add in future. But, sometimes, it didn't cross my mind at the time of writing the story. lol
Thanks.. Hope the story did as well.
Yes the story did but that was not what meant to say. The start + end fit.
I guess it happens sometimes.. =P
