Weekly Contest #356
Even in death her beauty endured, and beyond which, her appearance alone still dominated the young man’s consciousness in ways no other person or thing ever could. Even in death, when her lifeless body lacked the charismatic vibrancy, she once flooded everyone around her with, her mortal remains still exuded an aftermath of her presence in a way which defied explanation. Andy stood over Cassandra’s open casket and surveyed her pale white face for the longest few minutes of his life. The freak traffic accident that had ended her life unexpe...

CW: Trauma, shipwreck Nicky looked up in horror as the bow of the ship rose up in a final act of surrender to the raging sea.
