Word count: 100
Prompt: Scar
Nobody officially decided, to let him lead the line. Slowly, the crowd had just shuffled out that way, falling in behind his stature, his scars, his silence.
Did they see a leader, in him? Beyond absurd, to follow a sinner. He was as lost as the rest of them. More lost.

He only lowered his head, and led his people against the wind.
