Greetings,
Hey, cool story. I love the wryly humorous tone of the narrating son which uplifts the seriousness of the situation, and how you’ve described things in a matter-of-fact way without being too gory or depressing. The book is indeed valuable, a survival gift from father to son ensuring a strong lineage and a privileged position among the families.
Your moral at the end is immediately applicable to the modern situation, and we see how important it is to maintain the wisdom of the ages rather than being swept along in the waves of time, unanchored.
I might suggest making more of a point of how the narrating son was able to add his own wisdom to the book as he grew and learned over his time in the Outer Realm. Being as this is from so many years ago, I won’t ask if it was written for any particular contest.
A great, adventurous read, with a solid message well told. I enjoyed it.
