Lost
The wind howled around the three weary wanderers as they tramped along the snowy path.
With every step they held out vain hope that civilisation would come into sight, yet with every mile that passed the hope grew thinner.
Nine hours now since they found themselves stranded in this vast deserted countryside, their home city gone. The further they walked, the more they discovered that it wasn’t just Cardiff.
Ianto’s GPS told them they should have passed through Newport hours ago, but they hadn’t found anything but more snow-covered moor land. They’d tried heading for the bay, but that hadn’t been there either, more snowy grass all that was found where there used to be sea.
