The Bard's Hall Contest  (13+) APRIL: Flash Fiction, 500 word limit. #981150 by StephBee - House Targaryen

I've been stretching my imagination today. Totally out of my comfort zone, I'm trying to write a story for the Anthology; Blimprider's Fireside Tales.
On the first day of the month, Blimprider, selects a new prompt. There are two parts to the prompt. First the character and then the situation. This month is: Character, someone new to the district. Situation: An asteroid is hurtling towards the Earth.

I've managed to write about 1500 words. As usual the setting is in Australia. The deserts here are ideal for a visitation or an invasion or a crash landing of an alien rock.

The coldest day of the year today. Our little town was the coldest in the State! Well at least it was the shortest day. Winter Solstice 2021 June 21st. Tomorrow the sun starts to shine a minute longer than today!
