Flashback (Old Hunters)

The wind carries her last words as she pulls herself off the blades and slowly backs away.

"Curse the fiends, their children too, and their children forever true."

I watch her fall off the cliff, blood trailing in front her, a graceful tumble into the open arms of the land of Mother Kos. The woman that ended her, the so called Lady Maria, stands still in shock. I run from them both, repeating my sister's words, for once true. Curse the fiends, curse them all indeed.
