Wheeling Gull Isle long in tooth and soul

The red tears come. Hollowed eyes look up at him.

A tongue flicks along the points of his teeth. Had Judah done this?

He loved his little brother- honest he did! All his little siblings, they were his babies, like he was Simmy’s! But then how could he cause so much hurt? His eyes well in fear and shame, he stumbles back as if afraid one touch would shatter the littler boy who is looking up at him with so much question. He wanted to throw his arms around him and tell him everything would be alright, that he would get Ami and she would make it better, but...

Judah knew monsters. He was haunted by them. And now he was one.

He revolted against the idea- no he was good! He loved God! He tried, earnestly he did! His chest heaves, the tears roll.

“SWOP CWYING WED ABEY!” He commands. He didn't want to see it!
