This funeral. The proper burial for a deserving man, Roy thought to himself as he stood with his head bowed. No… He decided a moment later, clenching his jaw to hold back the tears. Maes deserved better.
The wails of the child rose above the silence, sending the birds away in fear.
Roy lifted his head to the sky, seeing without sight. Whoever did this will die. I swear it on your grave, Maes Hughes. A tear slid down his cheek. On your grave, I swear this.
And the child cried again, 'Daddy!'

Just a drabble in memory of Maes Hughes. May he rest in peace.
