He looked up and saw the moon shining back towards his eyes. he had just emerged from the sand along with all of his brothers and sisters. He He was confused, not understanding whey he was here or what he needed to do.

His brothers and sisters seemed to be making their way to something that was moving, so he followed them.

This moving thing was cold yet somehow it felt to him like he belonged in it. Suddenly, there was a presence that gave him a great sense of fear then felt a force he couldn't escape.
