The Gods Unremembered
By Scott L Vannatter – 100 words
Young Tony walked slowly up to the 30 foot statue and stared. The bronze and iron cast was covered in mold and barnacles and other scrapings from the sea. He turned to his father and, with a look of complete loss, asked the burning question.
“Dad, who is this?”
His father, being careful not to appear too ignorant, shuffled a bit before replying.
“Not really certain. It’s too covered to really tell.”
The couple walked off down the beach. Inside the statue, the mind was screaming.
“Triton! Just remember and I return! Why are you mortals so ignorant?”
Sadness overcomes.

Dear Kindred, Triton needs a better fan club so they could place a plaque by the statue so people could learn about him. You wrote a great story Scott! Nan 🙂

Scott, Good story, well written once again. Poor Triton. At that size, I’m not certain that it would be a good thing to have him come back. He must have made someone mad by doing something he shouldn’t have done. Well done. 🙂 —Susan

Perhaps, simply too much iron in the water? 🙂

Nicely done.
