Stone Circle he is without a heart

PP of Rosina’s body with permission. Please allow @Merrick to post first. 

 

Astara broke the cover of tree line covered in mud, Rosina’s body dragging behind her. Deep ruts appeared in the saturated earth as Astara hauled the corpse forward with silent grunts. 

Once the blackbird saw the monolith stones that marked Easthollow’s borders, she flung Rosina towards them. The corpse crumpled into the sodden loam, sinking wordlessly with sightless eyes aimed at the cheerless grey sky. 

Then, the nightshade threw back her head in a summoning howl — her voice incensed. These stone-fuckers and their hiding in their little hollow behind their stupid little stones was coming to an end —

Today, Easthollow faced retribution; today, Easthollow answered for the crime committed by one of their own. Astara was on the warpath — and nothing but killing would settle the relentless pounding of fury that rattled behind her skull.
