Role

Chapter 2


Sins of the Father.
Added Fri May 8 03:49:50 2020 at level 15:

It was a cold autumn day when what Zrath had been running from for all
these years caught up to them. Though the memory had a somewhat detached
feel, Vlalkon would never forget awaking to the stench of blood and fire.
Would remember the great shadow cast without sun or firelight that
stretched over their campsight. Would remember knowing that if he looked up
at whatever cast that shadow something terrible would befall him.

The shadow spoke with words that sent lances of pain into Vlalkon's ears,
and Zrath begged for mercy. Begged for more time. Pledged his pact would be
fulfilled; but even Vlalkon knew there would be no mercy this day. Yet as
the shadow reached out to engulf Zrath, the cruel giant had one last card
to play.

"Take daughter! First born of Zrath! Take soul, spare Zrath!"

The shadow paused,, then descended. Two screams rang out, and were silenced.

{Betrayal of us, and betrayal of kin. Yet the price is offered, and the
price is taken.}

Vlalkon scrabbled in the dirt to Ezara's unmoving form; tendrils of frost
already racing across the soulless husk. It was not meant to be this way.
Vlalkon was not a brave giant. His unvoiced pledge to kill Zrath was
perhaps the bravest thing he had ever done, and such promises were easy to
voice with one's self the only witness. But the shadow had taken the one
thing he loved; and so Vlalkon was brave for the first time in his life.

"Give back! Give back!"

The terrible shadow stooped, and Vlalkon knew in that moment that his death
was at hand.

But then it paused.

{Such potential.}

A fetted wind rolled over Vlalkon, and the entity pulled back.

{Two souls were ours to take, and two souls we have taken. Two souls to
Cocytus, and two souls for eternity.}

"Vlalkon trade! Vlalkon go instead!"

The shadow trembled in exultant expectation.

{Make them lament your birth and rejoice at your passing. Study as her
father did; and do the work of Sedayamin. A soul as black as the abyss and
forged in blood as trade.}

Vlalkon was horrified. There was nothing in this world he loathed more than
Zrath; a hatred which had only grown to eclipse its former fury by the last
few moments.

But love makes us do terrible things.

Vlalkon nodded.

A force took hold of Vlalkon's chin and tilted his eyes up to the thing
that dwelled beyond the shadow, and Vlalkon screamed.

{Then our pact is made a new. Harvest well, foolish giant.}

But Vlalkon was already unconscious, crimson tears running from eyes and
ears alike.
