Summary: Upstate New York, after the fall. "Some of the ways death had come to work were obvious, and they were new and necessitated negotiation, but other ways were invisible, or at least invisible unless you cared to look very closely, and thus perhaps they had been as such forever."
Notes: Necromancers’ bells and the treatment of death in this story are borrowed from Garth Nix’s Old Kingdom series, and much of the plot is borrowed from Meat Loaf’s “Bat Out of Hell.” The rest is inspired by the ineluctable presence feeling of the Adirondacks and the New York north country. Thank you Beyond to E for all your support, your encouragement, and your beta read.
Prompt: #21 - Picture of a darkened landscape with lightning striking in the distance.
