Grave.
Willow—eyes dark devoid of any light, skin pale as ivory, hair dark as night. Everything ripped away, child no more—a mere shadow of the person she was before.
Replaced with despair, such a tiny little piece of metal. Strange how it can destroy something so beautiful, something so loved. Took her light away, from her. The one person who didn't deserve this—gone.
Empowering surges of magicks tickle her fingertips, nails as dark as ebony, bloodstained against creamy smooth skin. An electrical storm flickers within.
Last vestige of hope, Xander prays harder than before—hopes to restore.
