Sun
All throughout the country citizens look towards the darkening sky and mourn the loss of another day. The hopes, dreams and achievements of a nation sinking and disappearing along with the loss of the sun.
Parents tuck their children into bed with stories of foul creatures that lurk under their bed during the night, waiting for them to leave the relative safety of bed. As the children grow the boys stop hearing such stories. It is different for the girls, while they learn there are no monsters, they are still afraid.
Every night tucked into bed the nation waits with baited breath. Hoping that in the morn the sun will rise.
