Panther Park We'll win but not everyone will get out

<33

the words that were issued from the man seemed so strange to illidan – so foreign. he didn’t understand portions of it. his head felt like it was sinking into the sea and he was catching his last glimpse of sunlight just above the lapping water. liri had disappeared after the attack. kavik had found a home elsewhere and had even managed to sire children with another woman in the time before she had returned. his heart seized in his chest and he turned away from the dark male, clenching his jaw tightly enough to feel his teeth grind.
 
“how old?” he asked hoarsely of the man. “how old is your daughter?”
 
when the hawkish yellow of his vision turned back toward kavik, they were almost lifeless. it didn’t seem to matter to the ghost where they were staying, at least not anymore. illidan was not sure why he had held onto the image of kavik and liri for so long. the image of them together just as he remembered when they’d taken him in. it was a fool’s picture – the thoughts that only a child would have. they did not belong in his head.
