The Sins of Man

A Story by chanze reid

setting mixed with an event

The crescendo of sunlight intensified its glory as it struck upon the stark contrasting elegance of the sheet made of pearl. Its aura gained depth as the powdered snow shown with a mesmerized luminescence. Time itself did freeze in awe at the sight of the crystallized perspiration. Thunder shattered the silence of peace, awakening the sleeping giant that was the wind, rousing the blizzard that lay dormant upon the tundra floor. Shattering again and again this thunder did quake. The sound did resonate as the cannon fire became clear. Coming to bear the soldiers did march as the epicenter of the field lost its neutrality. Men in black clashed in unbridled fury against the determined blue coated troops, their swarms merging into one another. Battle they did upon the ice settling their disputes upon the sheet of ivory. Cries rosé up mixing with shots and cannon fire. Soon the field once again reclaimed its silence the once magnificent field a sinister sight. The once mighty ocean of diamonds shriveled in disgust as the blanket of murky crimson did seep into it soul. The sin of the field’s events freezing alongside the body’s of their previous inhabitants, burrowing itself into the once purified section of earth. Bloody was their reign. Bloody were the sins of man.
