The Shrine at the Edge of the Alfalfa Field

Luna drives through the high desert of central Oregon in late October, following a handwritten tip about a shrine hidden at the edge of an alfalfa field. The note mentions the name of a woman who vanished thirty years ago, and a keeper who still leaves offerings. Luna finds the shrine—a small wooden cross draped in tarnished rosaries, surrounded by jars of dried flowers—and meets the old man who built it. He tells her about the night his daughter walked into the field and never came back, about the light he sees some nights floating above the alfalfa, and about the shape that kneels beside the cross when the moon is full. Luna stays until dawn, watching the field. She sees nothing. But she feels the weight of a presence—patient, waiting, almost expectant. She leaves the shrine a single stone, the way the old man showed her, and drives away with the image of that light burned into her memory. #ShrineAtTheEdgeOfTheAlfalfaField #Luna #OregonHighDesert #October #AlfalfaField #MissingPerson #Shrine #TarnishedRosaries #DriedFlowers #OldMan #VanishedDaughter #FloatingLight #FullMoon #Presence #Patience #FexingoHorror #HorrorPodcast #SaintsOfTheSaltFlats Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
