The Enrichment
In an old estate, a well-meaning Lord released an exotic serpent to “enrich” his garden.
Soon birds fell silent.
Rabbits became myths.
Hunters vanished.
The serpent thrived.
Multiplied.
One night, in the darkened estate,
the Lord sat alone.
Faint glowing eyes encircled him in the darkness.
From every shadow came endless whispers, slithering and coiling towards their last,
trembling prey.
