Valkyrie's Tears

Pure Loss

"One glance, that's all he needs."

Ghastly Bespoke can read people easily, taking their measurements and writing them down neatly. When Skulduggery Pleasant disappeared, though, Valkyrie Cain suddenly became very hard to read. Her emotions flared regularly, and she never said a thing straight. When she was alone, though, he might have found her very, very easy to read.

One tear, shed with pure loss.

Palsy and amusia and silent murder~
