I'd love to see more on this short story. I can see the story expanded out and an epic battle to remove the workers and take down the wall. I enjoyed the little pieces of world building that left me wanting more! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for reading and for your feedback, Stephanie! This definitely could have been expanded to a much longer story, but I love a little mystery... a smaller story within a story. 😁
Nicely done. Lots to think about in this. It seems to border on allegory.
Thank you, Jean! My fantasy stories definitely take on a more folktale or allegory appeal. I think I'm focusing more on themes when I write them.
Thanks again for sharing! Happy Thursday
Thank you for reading Vince!
I enjoyed this! I can easily see it being just one scene in a wider story.
Thank you, Richard!

I like to the gaps left to the readers imagination and the hints as to a better future. Very nicely compressed as well.
Thank you for reading and commenting, Graham!
