roesslyng: (SSSS - Noita)
Title: Words are dynamite
Fandom: Stand Still Stay Silent
Characters: Láilá
Rating: 0+
Length: 150 words
Summary: She doesn't know how they clear the land in Sweden, but here, she'll do it her way.
Other: Snip of something that I was going to expand later (and still might, some day). General idea is that Swedish-style Cleansing is not practised everywhere. Because it relies on the use of explosives, Swedish Cleansing isn't practical in areas like Kajaani, where explosives can't easily be produced locally, and imported materials need to be transported long distances upriver in small boats. Rather than demolition, Láilá and her Clearance team rely on a combination of magic and traditional controlled burning to get the job done.

Characters/Pairing: Various Denesuline/Cree/Metis OCs
Rating: 0+
Length: 1.1k
Summary: I wasn't there, back then, when they went looking for other survivors. But this is what they say....
Other: Prompt was "Any SSSS - first contact with other parts of the Silent World". This is an "early years of the Rash" setting. At some other point I'll probably come back to the speaker and listener characters since I've had some stories about them kicking around... Anyway, this one takes place in northern Canada; specifically northern Alberta/southern Northwest Territories, in the area of Fort Chipewyan (K'aitel koe) and Fort Smith (Thebacha).
*The word used for trolls here is a Cree term, wihtikow; these monsters are also known as Wendigo.
