[Ceri] On the Rack

[basts_tail]

Ceri sat in the window sill, her eyes dark with pain. In the next room, blood on the pillows betrayed her tears.

I cut this part out of me, to stay loyal to my faith, to my vow to Kincaid. To help my people here.

She curls her arms around herself, a slight tremble apparent.

So lonely… and he can’t be right… he just… can’t…

The tear tracks down her cheek.
