This week's prompt is: The year is 2030. The first astronauts have landed on Mars. They find a cave with a single human skeleton in it and fifteen words written on the wall. What are those words? Have fun.
This was hard, not very fun, but I found a story. Not a bit of magic here, though.
After a long day's work deciphering the ancient writing, the scientist finally found out what the old space man had written on the cave wall: "One does not simply escape to Mars. They will always find you in the end."
I love what you did with this challenging prompt. A minor typo 'spimly' is I assume simply. I do wonder who or what found him. A sad and effective use of the prompt.
SvarSletThank you. I don't know what got him, sorry.
SletEscape of some kinds is impossible.
SvarSletYes and with this kind of prompts - for me at least - a sad ending is the only possible way out.
SletFor some reason, I am amused by this and also seriously thinking how hard it is to avoid people you don't like.
SvarSletHave a lovely day.
Good use of prompt Charlotte. I threw mine on EC's blog.
