AS DRY AND SPEECHLESS AS THE MOON (Indie Sci-Fi Visual Novel)
David Dutton for Narrator
In the thick, wooly darkness of your mind, you first notice the faint taste of copper in your mouth. Then the dust swirling around you in sync with the wind, dancing on your skin. Then the nauseating awareness of your own skull — the way it throbs with every heartbeat, as merciless as a slowly creeping tide.
You open your eyes.

"The first things you see are ribs. Vast ones. Curved. Pale with age and streaked with mineral rust, arching overhead like the vaulted bones of something ancient and enormous. You are inside an intergalactic ship — or what was a ship, once, before the desert swallowed it whole."
"A canteen is pressed to your lips. The water is warm and tastes faintly of leather, but you drink it anyway, gratefully. As your mouth softens, the arrhythmic beating of your heart starts to calm."
"As she throws back her head with laughter, something shifts inside your chest. There's a glimmer of belonging you feel here. You don't describe it like that to yourself but maybe you know. Night after night, the moon moves across the sand, towards the east."
