Summary
——————
Albedo heard a sound; just as faint as the ache in his body. He felt a weight on him too, but it didn’t bother him; the weight itself wasn’t hurting him. Perhaps a curious bird had just landed on his chest.
He focused his ears to hear the bird’s song. It was strange; there was no rhythm to it, and it sounded like it was trying to speak. Or, no, it wasn’t a bird’s song.
The more Albedo focused, the more he realised it was a human voice, talking; saying his name. As he began to recognise the voice more and more, so too did the pain increase tenfold and then again. What he first mistook as a dull ache was in reality a paralysing pain, making Albedo’s body stiffen. The voice he thought was a soft birdsong was actually a panicked yell.
——————
Albedo is forced to accept the fate laid out for him centuries ago — to break ties with everyone he loves for the sake of his festering corruption.
