The Fangs, the Greenwing, and everything else down to the coast and the sea varnished in a rich, disgusting hue; a warning, a forbearing arch of disaster and mayhem – nothing they’d seen since Starfall had landed.

And then figure out the rest.

this untamable expanse
churning proof that we have always been deep, restless souls
churning proof that we have always been deep, restless souls
