Tether

by Mars Marley

Psychiatrist Henry Terra has lost his passion to practice. After decades of inspired work, Henry has found himself divorced, estranged from his son and unmoved by the strained familial ties of a past long gone. He teeters on the brink of depression, finding friendship in booze and apathy until the day he meets Albert Hathaway. Albert Hathaway longs for resolution, but is tangled up with his demons. After a tragedy that encapsulated every thought in his head, he finds himself exhausted, but with enough stamina to attempt to find reason for a stay on his life. In his last ditch effort to find resolve he finds himself in the office of Henry Terra. The two begin their therapy, which quickly inspires a self introspection on the part of Dr. Terra. The discoveries stimulate a pause from Dr. Terra's current reality and catapult him on a journey that very well may lead him to Pandora's box. Will he open it? What might he find? A figment of his imagination, or a manifestation of his own demons?
