4 - Alternate Response: The Aftermath

TW: injury

To answer this prompt, compose a poem or illustration about the earthquake. You may take the perspective of a neutral observer, your own egg, Gwillanth, or any other person or thing affected by the quake, and depict or explore any part of the event or aftermath that speaks to you. You do not need to both compose a poem and draw a scene to count for this prompt, only one.

After you have posted a scene responding to this prompt, feel free to add it to your profile in a new tab.

Here are some possible topics to get you thinking, though these are far from the only options:

• The Hatching Cavern before, after, or during the quake
• The temporary tents with the eggs in them
• The process of excavating/rectifying any different part of the Weyr
• A portrait or study of the eggs, Gwillanth, Pertemarth, the greens, Issrodeth, or any of the other characters involved in the earthquake
• A narrative of the event
• An abstract or emotional expression of the event
• A depiction of dreams, hopes, fears, or anxieties prompted by the event
