Twice Kindled
To immortal eyes, she was defeated, lost. To others, she was simply dead.
But they had forgotten she was a survivor. Meanwhile she was cradled in the welcoming dark, healing, being reborn.
A quickening; cold fingers twitched as her labouring heart began a slow rhythm. Pain exploded, radiated steadily through her prone body, the slap of it waking her more effectively than a caress. Her limbs remained unmoving; her mind screamed—
—cannot die this easily!
In the sterile room of a silent morgue, surrounded by the dead and watched over by the living, her eyes finally opened to excruciating light.
