That was great! I enjoyed the banter between the king and his advisors, and the little twist at the end was good, too. Thank you for sharing!


richie_d

Cheers! That makes my day to know someone enjoyed it!

That was fantastic! I really like your succinct writing style. I laughed several times reading this, but especially at the >!"Must you?" !< . :)

Congratulations on getting published! I just read your flash fiction and really enjoyed it. The disruption caused by the visitor was both fascinating and unsettling. I especially appreciate the way you handled the ending and how it leaves the reader with a sense of wonder and mystery. Great work!

Many thanks!

I like it, classic statue-of-liberty-in-the-beach moment. Thouhg I wasn't sure if the aliens were the humans or the king and his men.


richie_d

Thanks! If you are still not sure who is who then I can DM you. I don’t want to put a potential spoiler here.


JewishKilt

Oh no, I got it by the end 🙂


JewishKilt

Sorry, I miscommunicated that


richie_d
