relic - The Listener - January 10, 2022 the corpse of eldritch lay on the cliff for days. duty required that the listener allow her offering to feed the scavenging birds that gathered around the body. already her eyes were gone, her visage picked to shreds. the listener returned with herbs. fragrant, vibrant plants to replace the organs she would remove from the body. she began with the skyrock, and worked briskly to finish her gruesome task. her final act nearly destroyed the last recognizable traces of eldritch. with one paw she held the corpse in place as she tore the spine from it. a relic. blackwater's first sacrifice. she set it aside. later, when the body had been filled with herbs and cast into the sea, the listener took the spine out onto the beach. using sand and cold ocean waves, she cleaned the last shreds of flesh from it. then she took her newly-made relic, along with the skyrock, to the freshly-dug den where objects of power would rest. eldritch's sacrifice would not be forgotten. |
