A Snake Falls to Earth

The author has chosen a very unique way to tell this story. Dear reader, you must practice patience. I was completely confused for the first 50%. I literally said out loud “I've been paying attention. What the heck is going on? How do I not know what is going on?” I refused to give up on the read though. Trust that it all comes together in the end and it is a beautiful story.

Our people are in a constant cycle of resistance in every way.
