I am so in love with the drabble concept and here is my first attempt:

He shook his head, his beard clinging to the crags of his face.
“It wasn’t a fleece, but it was at the end of the world. Don’t believe them when they tell you it’s round. If you are not careful you can fall right off.”

“It was man-skin, a golden flay.”

“God Foe. They needed his skin.”
We both leant into our drinks.
“Men are at the whim of the gods, real or imagined.”
“What is next for you?” I asked
“Home.”
