The Valley of Our Fathers: Weekly Prompt 12

Those of us who know where our families hail from have a special fondness of our roots. Why? Because something about these lands seem like a home away from home for us.

The land of our fathers calls for us to return.

For me, a good amount of my family arrived in Oregon on wagons in the 1800’s. They homesteaded here. They built this land. We’ve been here nonstop since then. And yet, something about the Fatherland (Germany), seems to beckon for my return from time to time.

Your prompt is for the return of sons to the lands of their forefathers.

This can take the form of a prodigal son story, or it can take the form of someone rediscovering their roots, or literally anything else that piques your fancy. 🙂

I hope this prompt inspires y’all!

As always, this prompt is free to use however you’d like.
