The Mystery Keeps Growing

As the hours ticked by, the crowd kept getting bigger. The whole thing felt off, since elephants usually move as a tight-knit group, but her herd had already carried on without her. They typically don’t stay separated for long, so seeing her alone like this was strange. Still, the big female didn’t seem bothered in the slightest, she had one thing on her mind, digging like her life depended on it.

Was she just parched and hunting for water, or was something else going on? Even the villagers who knew elephants best couldn’t make sense of it. The longer she kept at it, the more the mystery deepened, and everyone stood there watching, waiting to see what she’d pull from the earth.
