Hi Nomorose,
This is a fantastic story. The tone is formal. It suits the story and plot very well. The reader is wondering who has killed the farmer's cow. They will read to the last word to find out. The plot is straight forward and moves along logically. The story is about a middle aged farmer who wakes up in the night to find his cow dead. The conflict is well defined. There is no doubt about what is going on here. The characterization is fully developed and believable. The story concentrates on the middle aged man, and he comes across as a real person. There is no dialogue but it is not needed here. The description is detailed and vivid. It puts the reader all the way into the story. The story is well structured and consistent in terms of point of view and tense. You have accomplished a great deal in just a few words. Great job.
