The Desert Vigil

Content

Many believed that the desert was a desolate, lonely place. Miles of arid sand and sun-bleached brush interrupted only by spine-like mountains never seemed like a place for life. No, the desert seemed like a distant planet more than anything else: forbidding and alien. But life always found a way. Even when that barren land seemed built to keep the living away from the things not quite living and not quite dead.

Outstanding reviews

Great first submission I.D.! Love a good desert haunt. :) Welcome to Reedsy!
