#MarchMadness - Day 20

March Madness

Day 20. I wrote 35,757 words by now and used the prompt departure. I had to drive some distance to find a better connection. I will only post a part of what I wrote. It turned out to be a problem to post larger content. And now I need to hurry back to write the next part

They agreed to examine the father's children first and the cave next.

'What a pathetic creatures they are, I wonder what their females will look like', the dark-haired said.

'They look exactly the same. I can't help, but it is hard to believe they are living beings.
They remind me of a very old tale about some kind of a professor that created a monster out of the limbs of other living beings. It was all sewed together and brought to life. Kind of sad story, the creature felt unhappy and probably wasn't handsome at all. Being so completely different from the rest must be hard.
These statues, with their green gloss, glowing in the dark, remind me of him.'
She patted one of them with her hand. 'Do you hear that sound? It sounds hollow.'

'Why did that professor create a monster', one of the females asked, 'was it at the time the Mother decided the time of birth was over and she made us immortal?'

'No, I don't think so. It was way earlier, centuries ago in a dark time.
I assume he just wanted to prove to himself or his world he was able to give birth as well or at least could create something. I cannot remember the whole story, but I don't think he really cared about the being he created and its feelings.'

'So what happened to it', Lisa asked, 'and to the professor?'

'His monster ran out of him. He tried to build a life of his own, just wanted to be accepted and find some company. A person who cared about him the way he was, appreciate him and the professor...
I don't know. Perhaps they set him at fire or he ran out or committed suicide or whatever people did at that time. It was an old book I read a very long time ago.'

I use partiko

How about giving it a try yourself?
With my lousy, unstable connection it is the only app that still works most of the times.
Simply give it a try. There is nothing to lose
