Blacktail Deer Plateau Callous be his mind, but there are razor blades for that.

actually I was hoping this would happen! Thanks a much for following with it!!!

Siqsa watched the smaller male slink off to be away from him, and immediately the concession of voices started, coating his mind with the negativity he was expected to marinate in. The very same acidic drench he had ripened in all of his life, so far.

Evil.
You hurt, you kill, you maim.
Nothing will become of you.
You are a monster.

The true son of a Nightmare.

All of it replayed over in his mind with such conviction that he became numb to everything around him. Turning back to his trek, he continued on his heartless path, marking what lay unmarked or faded.

Almost briefly, he passed under that shard of moonlight and with it came some sort of sparkle under his left eye.
Was it a tear?...

Siq. Fin.
