The Boy

By Cullen Vane

In a mountainous valley completely set apart from any other known civilization, a young boy acts as the voice and conscience of a populous lorded over by The Judge and his sycophants, the Candle Walkers. When the boy commits the crime of "embroilment" by questioning why things are and can't change, he is muzzled for a year. When he commits the heinous crime of "illusionment" for questioning whether anything exists outside the valley, he is forced to flee or risk imprisonment and possibly death.Sharp and stark like the landscape of the valley itself, The Boy is a tale about the basic human right of all people to be free and how even one person can affect change and offer hope. It is a story of tyranny, power and its corruptive abuse that is universal and contemporary in theme.
