Maybe it’s because of the lack of sunshine and extensive grey cloud coverage in the sky, but I couldn’t think of anything interesting to write about today. In also treating this month of InkTober prompts as an exercise in mindful writing, the goal isn’t to force myself to write something every day, but to see what each word inspires me to write. Today’s word, sword, didn’t ignite a flow of memories or creative thought, therefore, my focus is on the sketch.

What I will say, being the geek that I am is: I hope Jon Snow’s Valyrian steel sword, Longclaw, kills the Night King and ends the war with the dead.
