Setting



My close hunting partner, Orion, become more than just a friend to me. Despite my beliefs on marriage and being an independent women, Orion and I did have some chemistry flowing between us. Unfortunately my brother, Apollo, became aware of my whereabouts with the great giant, Orion. On a seemingly beautiful day, Apollo became jealous with the fact that i was taking a great deal of interest in Orion and not him, so he challenged my shooting skills. He said that I couldn't hit a floating object far out from the shore. In perfect conditions with no wind, the smell of salt water in the air, the sun being blocked by a small cluster of clouds, and with unwavering confidence, I hit it perfectly with my bow. Upon further observation however, the floating object above the sparkling water turned out to be the head of my beloved Orion. I was devastated and with great grief I turned my only lover into a number of stars and sent him into the night sky to always be admired.

  1. Focus specifically on the setting and not characters. Remember to use the five senses.
