    Summary

    A Dark Lord and a High Priestess of Hekate cross paths in the 1950s.

    "He is not a god when he falls from a brilliantly painted sky. His stygian feathers disperse in waves as his wings melt like oil held to a flame, no longer held together by one emotion. He tries to reach for the sun, stars, and clouds above, and any signs of her warmth flow through his fingers and disappear. Sound poised at the end of his tongue with words left unsaid, never to be ripped from his throat, the taste of obsession on his lips, and a lament in the cold recesses of his dark aching heart. His red eyes closed, and down he fell, tumbling into the violent sea below."
