Two Eyes Cenote [BOO] 呪われた女王 // Aoimoku

by the time the guests had departed the temple, the clouds had split and faded across the sky. the moon sat alone and watching; but the temple was empty, for a time.

satsu stood where toula had been crowned. her features drawn with sorrow. her three tails draping across the stone behind her as a wedding train might flow. she touched the dias; her ghostly digits pressing against the stone tablet at the head of the room. as she turns from this she catches sight of small pieces of feather and finery which had come away from toula; tiny things, missed in the grand scheme.

she could hear the revelry. remembering.

her figure is more like mist now than ever before - she knows that soon she will be pulled back from this place. locked away where she will only watch, rather than influence.

@Ramesses.

drifting, pacing the floor to where senmut had been. then to the front row of the crowd, surrounded by dust and caught by the moonlight. her eyes close, and she lifts her chin, poised and powerful, and listening.

silver tears slide down her face.
