Purple Shards of Sky
When the purple night sky shatters above.
The purple night sky above is shattering into so many glass pieces. Shards of purple sky plummet towards helpless men and women below.
Suddenly… suspended. Floating above the treetops. Gasps of awe below.
The shards shatter once more, softly now. Spraying finger sized gems below. Men and women collect the beautiful pieces. They fight one another for the pieces. Intent on selling them, reaching riches unimaginable.
Crimson blood stains purple gems in earth brown dirt.
The poison of the riches hurt humans more than the falling shards of glass ever would have.
