Nocturne, Teagen White
They trudged amongst the snow, their leather boots crushing the fresh powder. A flurry, cascading down around them. Unbothered, the figure continued. A satchel hung across their torso, bouncing with every frigid step.
Squeaking.
Squeak.
Squeak.
Squeak.
The Lady stopped, a hand raising to her shoulder to pluck the creature up. A rat; red-eyed, white as snow, just as she. Tucked away was the pet, into a pocket within her garbs- warm, hopefully, for the small thing.
Missives now hung in the cities of Man.
The realms of man are ones often deserving of consequence.
Their actions repeat, never cease; a cycle of those who cannot agree when they are one and the same.
Creatures opposing what will come, what will always come.
Short, meaningless lives cut shorter from their own affairs.
Their minds easily broken from outside pressures.
Twisted words harm more than most.
Fragile.
Short Lived.
What accomplishments are there to show for. Dead leaders, fall cities. That is all one remembers.
What is it for, descendants of Man?
Your honor and glory only come after death.
Signed,
Pestilence
