Yes! Robotic birds would be totally terrifying to me in real life, I think haha I can't wait to read about yours! I've been bogged down by work recently 😭 But I love your story so far, so I'll get to finishing it soon~
Thanks for the feedback! I also wanted to add Eligh encountering the giant bears a second and third time, but I was worried about word count (1,000-1,500). I did write a second encounter, but I scrapped it... I'm actually a very 'verbose' writer, so starting the contest late with this short deadline really did me in 😂 I challenged myself to use less description, internal monologues, etc. and instead try to move the story along mostly with dialogue and spurts of action/events. Idk if it was a good move, but I tried! haha
