I hope that you enjoyed this flash fiction piece. It was written as a contest entry, and at 1125 words is on the shorter range, but I still felt the story really blossom for me as the idea rounded out. If you liked it, I hope you'll click on the star to VOTE for it, and drop me a note.

I'll leave you with an intriguing question... did this planet remind you of anything?  ;-)

A small mystery begins at the end.
