fumes down there as far as I know."

Johnny remembers the fumes.
Sense of smell is powerful.
Nice one for the day.
Have a wonderful evening.
Ah, we do see things differently sometimes don't we? Great one for the day, Kay! Hope you have a lovely evening and a great week ahead!

Ah! Like the fumes and lost city. Very good.
Makes you think, one wonders if they are looking down at a world they once knew. Nice Microfiction.
Love the implications of the word "fumes"! Neat micro!
It gave me a fun sci-fi feel to it. Great one!!! :O)
could be a true story some day if we don't change our ways
well done
Ah... must have been global warming, hunh?
It sounds like a very apocalyptic tale, good one Kay.
A city turned to fumes and dust!
Very intriguing; tell us more.
Ah--fumes to the underworld...good mm this week. Cheers!
Really a unique plot, Kay! :) I like.
This reminds me of Sodom and Gomorrah.
They are now at the bottom of the Dead Sea.

Fumes is an excellent word choice and gives great heft to this wonderful story.
Hope you have a wonderful week.
There could be anything down there really. Spooky Micro but I liked it. Your dog is adorable too :)
There's something unbearably sad about drowned villages.
Fumes! oh no! they'd better get on outa there. Very nice take on it, makes me want to read more.
The Lost City...eerie! I like it, Kay.
Nice one. An entire setting described in just a few words of dialogue.
Ah, the madness of mankind. Great words.
Sci-Fi!!!
Wow- tight fit though- satellite
village? a castle mayhap? Thanks!
Funny when it's make-believe, but another matter altogether when it's true. Nice one, Kay :-)
Fantastic misty!
Looks like a movie scenery!

Great plot for a sci-fi/fantasy movie. I'd go see it!
As in the damn dam broke? Very provocative!
Oh, so cute! I wonder what Susan thinks of all of our entries and the kind of thoughts her photos provoke!
