It’s time for everyone’s favorite day of the week! I realized in flipping through past Hump Day Hooks and my labels/tags, I’d never dropped any hooks for The Edge of the Sphere in this weekly feature. Shame on me! Let me get on that right away! 😉
As always, don’t forget to read all the other fantastic hooks this week!
The surface of the water had been transformed into something unlike anything he had ever seen. Its clear depths had been replaced by a silvery blue fog that twisted and churned below him. He climbed on top of the rock to take a better look and was struck by a cold gust of wind. Staring into the mystical haze, he sought to see down to the bottom, and came up empty.
He stood up and cast a final look around. Nothing had been explained, and there were still far more questions than answers. He didn’t know if he was risking his safety, or even his life, with what he was about to do. His instincts to shy away from potential danger were not easily silenced. Still, his mind was completely absorbed by thoughts of Liora, and he knew he had to take his chance. Without even the briefest farewell to the world and life he knew, Stephen took a deep breath and stepped off the rock into the darkness.
