The unearthed man swung his head to one side and then the other, taking in the forest now in the dim light of morning. His tail flicked behind him, still aching from the fall. He saw trees all around, trees and brush and tall, broad-leafed plants reaching for the last bits of sunlight where they could manage to squeeze in. It seemed less foreboding in this light, if not any less confusing. He could not tell any direction, and it all looked and smelled the same.
The Duskwight's words he chewed over in silence for a time, scratching at his cheek beneath the mask and flaking away more dried mud. If someone had buried him, did that mean he had died? "I don't feel dead," he observed with a shrug and a half-grimace. He tried to search his memory, straining for any thought or sense of a young girl, or his relation to her, or what might have transpired, but just like all else, he found himself facing nothing but cold emptiness. The pit in his mind stared back at him like the pit he'd crawled from. He didn't like it and did not want to dwell on it.
"I don't know. Your guess is as good as mine."

"Song dogs barking at the break of dawn, lightning pushes the edges of a thunderstorm; and these streets, quiet as a sleeping army, send their battered dreams to heaven."
