A nightshade crown.
This is Day 5 of my entries for TES Summerfest 2024 on Tumblr! My other entries can be found in my personal collection.
Notes from Tumblr: Warnings for brief mentions of blood and torture. This one is real short (only 73 words) and more like a freeform poem than anything else I've written.
The shadow sat, oblivious to the world around it. Hands moving steadily; one, add another and loop, another and loop. A pattern without pause. A circle slowly chained together. Purple and green, living and vibrant, woven together.
Beside the shadow, a body. Shrouded, bloodied, tortured. Betrayed . Red stained fine linen. A soul made home in the Void.
A Shadow
A body.
A shallow grave.
A nightshade crown.
“Rest, sweet Lucien. Child of Sithis.”
