A to Z April Challenge - L is for Leviathan


Today my word inspiration is Leviathan.



Margaret hummed as she worked, carefully planting row after rows of seedlings. In a few weeks her farm would abound with new growth. She loved where she was, a small country farm, far from the cities. Peace and quiet abounded. She felt free.

As the shadow started over her she thought is was clouds. But the darkness got thicker as it came. Frowning she put down her tools and looked up.

With a gasp, she lost her footing, landing with a bang.

Above her was a huge ship, for lack of a better word. In shape it reminded her of one of the old blimps, but it was years since anything like it had been seen. It was so huge that she felt as though she could touch it if she reached up. But as she watched it sail slowly over her town she realised it was very high up.

As she watched it sail over the farm she realised that it was heading for the empty fields near her farm. The Leviathan was landing.
