And you understand with every seed you sow you make this cold world beautiful
Well, he supposed it was as good a time as any for a new start.
The last weeks had been difficult, torturous and slow and too fast and everything else too; to still be standing after them felt like quite the accomplishment, Sam felt. After all of it, the thing he wanted to do the most was collapse into bed and never leave, but he'd learnt over the last couple of years that rarely solved anything. His old life was in shambles, the family he'd built up destroyed and gone and his home radically changed from what it had once been...it was time to try and create something new from the rubble.
He'd sold some books and pens he had collected from his house to afford the shop: it was tiny, a building squished in between two others that almost looked too skinny to be real from the front, though at the back it opened out a little more. It was hardly a glamorous showroom, but that didn't matter: it was a space to work in and call his own, and it had a view of the ocean. Stood in the back room with his hands on his hips looking out over the beach, he allowed himself a smile: maybe, somehow, it'd be the start of something good.
He'd have to learn how to draw maps, of course, but that was a small detail.
Sam had already asked Zeph to come help, but he knew he couldn't ask the other man to take on all the work required: the interior of the building still showed signs of the butchers it had once been, rather ugly murals of meat and animals on the walls and suspiciously red dirt gathered in the corners. Having placed a sign on the door explaining that he was new to town and anyone that helped could expect free maps in the future, he hoped it might be enough to gain some more assistance.
