fire

Summary:

editing some of my fictober prompt fills into proper drabbles.

Yennefer knows the all-consuming, alluring, darkness of want.

Notes:

(See the end of the work for notes.)

Work Text:

Yennefer breathes and makes herself a conduit. She creates a channel, insulated with all of her fear and pain, and pulls. All of the chaos and fire of Sodden.

She feels. She feels something hot and aching in her core throb in time with the chaos passing through her. Triss had sounded so naive when she spoke of forbidden magics, like that meant something, but Yennefer knows the all-consuming, alluring, darkness of want. She will not give in.

So she lets the fire pass through her, leaving her with all her same aches and pains. It is enough. For now.

Notes:

I don't know how much of it comes across in 100 words (especially since I decided Yennefer's feelings were more important), but this was me trying to reconcile Yennefer doing what she did in Sodden and Ciri using fire magic in Time of Contempt.

You can follow me on tumblr here, where I talk about A Series of Unfortunate Events and the Witcher.

Original prompt fill can be found here, in case you want to see how I edited it.
