    An entertaining little short story, with a dream-like quality to the narrative. I liked the repo job angle to the story, and while Shauna claims to be the goddess of nature, she strikes me a bit more like the reaper... but then, what with the whole "circle of life" thing, I suppose they may be one and the same.


You actually got it right - the whole story is circular, just like the circle of life, and it deals with the nature of death. So if she's a goddess of nature, she could be a goddess of death. Also she works as a REPO agent, which makes it even more funny.

Then there's the spooky part of anyone who's given a taste of "Eden" to become obsessed with going back there even if it costs them their lives.
