The Encounter

As the remnants of the day faded, he walked home, feeling the twigs crunch under his weight and the cold November air electrify his bones.

A sound nearby startled him, and he stopped in his tracks, only to see another creature – tall, thin, hairless, two legged, with strange tentacles sticking out from either side.

Their eyes met, and in that brief moment of connection, they understood each other perfectly —    yes, it was indeed a magnificent sunset.
