had long replaced the larks‚ whose medallion-crested heads buried snugly into their plumage. The night was devoid of sound. Of the melodious calls of birds desperately reaching for their families. Of the gentle buzz of pollinators. Of the cicadas’ cry. The quiescence‚ however‚ shattered instantaneously as a young boy crashed through the prickling bushes‚ his huffing and puffing scattering the little crickets. His bare foot catching a tangled root‚ Fleance stifled a shriek of pain as he collided
