Oh, mother.
It was all he could do to fight the tears that threatened to well up. He tried not to think too much of home. Tried not to remember it, hoped it would make it easier, being here, if he just forgot it all.
Like he could. It was like trying to carve out half your soul. Asenath. Osiris. Serket. Mama.
Long as he still thought of their names, he'd never be able to fully disappear into this hell.
He hadn't seen the death of the hound, already whisked away as cartel blood stained the sands. Already gone by the time the one who'd weaved his fate with Nokht's own. No. He still thought he was out there. Lingering in the shadows, come to get him again.
He'd try one more time. How much more could he really hurt?

...I...Don' know..He'd murmer, look away to hide the sensitivity that was oh so unwelcome in a place like this.
He took me.

..Can you take me home?
