    When a girl from the city shows up, a young falconer starts to get interested in her. But will he manage to win her heart, when he has to survive every day by hunting delivery drones around the city, when things go bad one after another and when she turns out to be too much of a free spirit?

    A story with GameLit elements.

    George Saoulidis

    Writer/Director. I enjoy taking ancient Greek myths and turning them into modern sci-fi spooky versions. I also like to write romantic comedies, and people seem to go "Awww!" over them, so why not?  Many of my stories are icky, in various ways. I’m European, we have a higher tolerance for that kind of stuff. Plus, I’m inspired by mythology and Shakespeare, so if you can’t handle tragedy and bodily fluids, feel free to move on. My photo has been redrawn by a neural network. Join the Mythographers, download the free starting library and begin reading right now: https://www.mythographystudios.com/join

      After “The End”

      Oct 10, 2022

      I walked down the road with a hunched back and a wet cigarette in my mouth—the fire had died a while back. My hands were tucked into the pockets of my jacket, and my hair fell over my face, limiting my sight. But I wasn’t really seeing where I was go

      I caught a tablet today, and dad let me keep it. You know, to have something to keep me occupied. It’s Chinese-made, but it’s one of the good ones. We’d normally sell it but things are going well these days. Our new falcon, Rebecca, learnt to listen to me when I whistle, and she managed to catch a good package. The tablet is brand-new, this year’s model. You can talk to it and it writes everything down! How cool is that? I’ll write every day.

      23 Jan 2056

      I kept playing games all the time but the battery doesn’t last that long. I grew tired of them anyway. Dad won’t let me charge it all the time because the van’s batteries dry out quickly and we need them for other things.

      4 Feb 2056

      A small solar panel fell, one that fits the tablet. Now I can use it more often. Well, today, dad scolded me because I fed Rebecca too much and I shouldn’t have. When the falcon is well-fed, she won’t chase drones around. And, even worse, she might not come back to eat out of your hand, and if we lose her, what will we ever do? I got a slap on the head and I learnt all these things.

      8 Feb 2056

      I got dad’s old glove. The leather is too worn and Rebecca’s claws dig in and scratch you. But it’s too big for my hand, so I folded it and tied up the extra bits with a leather strap and now it fits me just fine. I showed my friend, Josef, and he called it a piece of trash. It’s not a piece of trash, it works just fine for me. Rebecca can sit on my hand and I put her hood on and keep her calm. I can feel that she’s happy. Mom
