All Comments on 'The Snake'

An interesting little parable. Begs several questions: is the (judgmental) widow Nareelya now in the same predicament as the widow Shayla? Was she better off ignorant of Paran’s true character? Is the snake a metaphor for enlightenment, a purveyor of evil? Something for my sleep deprived and addled brain to ponder. Thanks very much.

Snicker, what a delightful BTB. Three cheers for smart snake :) Thank you!

***Thanks for the read.

The actual story doesn't begin until the snake comes in. All that comes before is unneeded backstory/info dumping. Consider cutting all of that or integrating it somehow with the snake part. I think it will be more interesting then.
