Ravens and Wolves
Character: Tamsin
Rating: T
Notes: If Tamsin's truly a valkyrie, all the mythology's up for grabs.
Tamsin remembers running with wolves and ravens, symbols of her lost lord's dominion. It's fitting, now, that she stands with a woman of ravens at one shoulder and a man of wolves at the other.
So arbitrary, this division of dark and light. She has been a scream of battle on the wind; she has been a whisper of mercy to the dying. Both wolves and ravens feed on the corpses left behind by war and that, Tamsin knows, makes them closer kin than any disagreement over the treatment of mortals.
So foolish, to be forced to choose between them.
