So, in my current story, I have a situation I'm not sure what to do with. It's not a serious plot hole or anything, but I want to understand it before trying to write it. And I think the best way of explaining it is putting it into your perspective:
You live in a fantasy world, your sister is the queen. The country is invaded and in one night of insurgence, your sister is killed while you both try to escape. The country is now in the hands of the enemy, the soldiers are everywhere, and you are hiding in the forest with your sister's body. You know if they find the body of the dead queen they will desecrate her body and display it publicly. You have no means of digging a grave, but you want to hide her body so no one will find it. What do you do?
The reason I ask is because originally I was going to have the protagonist sink the body in the loch by putting the body in a rifle crate, filling it with rocks, and pushing it off a cliff, but my sense returned shortly and I realised this is far too complicated. So, any ideas or input would be appreciated. Like I said, it isn't a plot hole, but it's been nagging at me for a while. Help would be lovely.
