Flash Fiction Friday - Echoes in the Mist by Michele Liddle
Eilidh MacKenzie always knew she was different. Raised in a quiet Scottish village cradled by hills and lochs, her childhood was shaped by the whispers of her great-grandmother —stories of second sight, banshees crying by the river, and the mist that wasn’t just mist. Most folk rolled their eyes.

Pierce saw a large group of men appear from a bellowing wall of white. Like ghostly figures emerging from beyond the supernatural veil. They were carrying a man on a makeshift stretcher.
