The sky was crying this morning, sad leaden clouds hanging sullenly over the mountains and forest. It would not impede the offering though, somethings continued no matter what the weather. He looked down at the rich meal set upon the table, savory meats with vegetables and thick slabs of bread, fresh fruits cunningly presented, a healthy repast. There was no sense in turning on the news, he knew what it would say, he did not need to hear it.

There was a discrete cough from the entryway. Ah, it was time.

I like the rain. *grins* Have sat out in it under an awning and read to its pattering. Can see this becoming another drabble. *sighs*

I liked interjecting the modern day into this and yet here they still honor and offer blood sacrifices to whatever it is.

Thank you.
