Ashes Divide IV - The Ravish

Finally I am unplumbed

I was spell bound, so were the woods. The scranching leaves, and the knocking sounds with the guilt still inside me... I could have cried; but I had no tears left. It was me, just me and a paseo with no ending. Each turn with a new mantrap, a new face of that same old garish image. The menace grew stronger and stronger like a cactus growing inside me. A cactus digging deep down into my soul with scathe, purdah and absolute abstraction. I can see my self unjustified to everything; my words and thoughts were so inordinate. All these enthral yet outrage events were meant to happen, and I can fully see why.

I can see the novel faces, the novel faces behind those obscure ones. And I didn't had any hard feelings for any of them, because they were meant to be like this. It was only me who was living in a utopia. The only thing running like blood in my mind was to go back and see if the cave still had those mulleins... 

With a baleful look and awe; I stretched my wings to fly back, just like a delicate firefly in the sinister!
