Re: The Temple
In reply to Thomas Walker (msg # 479):
Soon, it started getting dark. It had fully clouded over, and a light, cold rain started falling.
The wind began blowing, harder and harder. Trees swayed back and forth, adding to the background sound.
As the last light faded from the sliver of sky visible through the trees overhead, they heard the thunder rumble again. It seemed much closer and louder, almost overhead.
This time they could see a possible cause. The clouds lit up. But not with flashes of lighting. They saw the clouds light up as something passed by overhead at high altitude. As the flashes passed by overhead they heard the craaaack-ruummmmble of a ship or small craft passed at supersonic speed during atmospheric re-entry, obscured by the low cloud layer.
