The dawn sucked because it was cold and wet and dark. The clouds broke as the sun climbed the rocky beach shores. Still, the light wasn’t enough to give any warmth. A earther man with a bag over his head and chains on his limbs ached with cold dampness. Around him stood a mob of weary looking olgogs and one deflated gog with two shovels.
Godart removed the bag from Nelios Daph-Tangnon Elorios head.
“Do you know why we are here Mr. Nelly?”, barked Godart.
Nelios spited in Godarts burned face.
“Ouch. That kinda hurts. Well, we going to dig – some graves.”
The man looked a bit paler now after the gog stated that calmly. Godart took some duct tape and placed it over the small man’s mouth.
“Let’s go.”
The mob pick up huge rocks and started filling them with huge rocks. Godart dragged Nelios and they then made their way further inland to a grass clearing. A huge circle was formed around the scribe and sole gog.
“Dig.”
Godart threw a shovel at Nelios and placed his in the ground.
“I’m not doing this alone. Dig or we’ll get the wood now.”
Nelios started digging with Godart until man size hole was formed.
“Take a break, we’re not done.” Nelios duct tape was pulled off and while a shorter female gog forced water from a canteen down his throat. The duct tape was slapped back on.
“Is this trip really necessary boss?”
“I don’t…” Know? Care? Why? “… think Mr. Nelly here can dig all these by… Hekeriki, just get the wood.”
So a bigger hole was dug.
“Sit and…”
A gog from the circle walk forward with a bag of rocks. The man called Nelios show no fear.
“… watch.”
Rocks filled the hole. A wooden tombstone was placed at the head the grave. It’s name in a dead earther language said: Giamatti.
Nelios looked confused while Godart started to fill grave back up.
“Get filling. Now! We’re doing this for our benefit as well as yours. This is something we thought you might understand.”
Time passed and 25 graves in total filled with rocks that had wooden tombstones were laid in a spiral pattern. They each had a name. How much time passed while this took didn’t matter. At the end, Nelios collapsed into sleep.
