Welcome back to War’s End. Kelty is trying to explain what he attempted to do as far as asking for assistance is concerned before they were captured, just before their sudden translation to the jungle.
“I tried my best. But with a Council ship blocking — no telling if it got through. Main priority’s survival, in any case.”
“Which means we get out of this clearing and rig a shelter and something to catch rain, now,” Coralie said firmly. She was as puzzled as anyone about where they were and how they’d gotten there, but that could wait. Right now, it looked more like rain every moment.
This snippet is a part of Six Sentence Sunday, a blog ring of authors presenting short excerpts from their work – rough draft, ready for publication, or published. Click on the logo to visit other fine authors – and we all love comments. By the way, there is a possibility that an unofficial list will continue. I just signed up at http://www.skyewarren.com/six/ and at the time I signed up there were 43 names.

I do so love Coralie’s take charge initiative and common sense. I wish there were more clues to their whereabouts!
She doesn’t take kindly to being coddled.
Coralie will see them through—and I like Kelty’s practicality.
Thanks for the heads-up about the unofficial six!
They’re a practical bunch, but the odds are stacked against them.
I don’t know where they’d be without Coralie!
She’s the one with survival training, but they’ll need all of their abilities.
I hope a message did get through! Coralie is great at rallying them all to action. Great 6.
They haven’t given up yet–on either end.
Love Coralie’s take charge initiative! Great six as usual!!
She’s beginning to realize that none of the rest of them know anything about wilderness.
I like how she hasn’t lost focus. Good six, Sue Ann. 🙂
She knows she has to stay alive for the baby’s sake.
Coralie seems to be a capable woman. Thanks for the heads up about the new list.
They’re all capable in their own fields.
Coralie has a lot on her shoulders but she seems up to the challenge! Terrific six!
She’s due for a couple of surprises.
Well, rain is a good way to describe the situation, which will seem to get worse. Though, Coralie will help them through. Fun six!
As long as she can.
Great six. And thank you for the link to the possible/unofficial Six Sunday!
So much about the background of this I’m not posting.
🙂 It doesn’t matter how techno-advanced human beings get they still have to get out of the rain. Still enjoying this story.
Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Especially the kind of rain they’ll meet on Rakal. (And it isn’t even the rainy season yet.)
Oh dear. I hope they all have hoods. Oh but the dog!
I’ll save my panic for next Sunday when I’ll have time to enjoy it properly. See you post-pudding day.
Given the heat, Bounce will probably enjoy it.
I’m glad someone is being practical!
Coralie or Bounce?
Rain means water, I think. I hope. I don’t know what kind of rain falls there. :c)
It’s water.
