Wilf and his sister Hazel had known the Wave all their lives as a distant barrier between the Valley and whatever lay outside. They had never stood so near.It filled the sky ahead, unearthly, ominous. Level with their eyes the sun glowed through that motionless curtain. The translucent Wave rose up and up, gathering itself until it curled over and ended in a lacy froth so far above that they looked almost straight up to see it.Wilf quavered with the Wave so near, though he would have suffered eternal torment before admitting this to Hazel. He kept his eyes on his feet as they climbed…What lies on the other side of the mysterious, unmoving Wave?
