Chapter Text
The moon was in eclipse. The same one from the legends, an eclipse that had not been seen in centuries. His eclipse. His downfall. His return. He had cloaked the sky in impenetrable darkness.
A girl would look up to the sky and feel it gathering around her, cloaking her as the once familiar darkness cloaked the sky. She would feel it calling to her. She hadn’t heard that call in centuries.
He watched from afar as he had always done since the night he burned a saint.
He watched as she finally crumbled under the weight of this night.
He watched her fall, unable to resist the call. His call.
He watched her refuse to stand and reply back in kind.
He watched her face as everything fell into place.
He watched her burn.
Then with a blaze streaming across the sky, He returned her stolen, Sacred, light.
