There were whispers, whispers in the trenches of a power, older than anything in the waking world. If you were brave enough to whisper its dread name in the darkness, it would answer. One night, a crippled spinner dares to call upon that name, to summon that ancient power and make a deal for the protection of his baby son. Short, introspective piece. Rate K for safety.
