Shrike's Heart (#1)

The woman before you is beautiful—fair of features, with lovely golden skin and luxurious long black hair, petite. You have the immediate and distinct impression that she's just let go of your hand, and she steps back, and smiles.

It's not quite a happy smile.

"I'm sorry," she says. "There's just nothing I can do, as things are. But the way is there; it just needs to be lit."

You open your mouth—maybe to say something, or to express confusion—but you have to cough, and taste something metallic, spattering black blood onto the ground in front of you. Then you realize—blood seeps from opening wounds in your arms, your chest, your stomach, your face. It rims your eyes and trails from your nose and you feel like you're dissolving—

—and you fall through the ground like it's the surface of a lake, and go down, down, down.

[ the beds aren't laid out with uniforms, but rather a plain white garment; the top wraps across the front, and the pants fit loosely. it looks like either spa gear or some cultures' idea of a funeral garment. ]

[this is... frustrating.]

Funerals the whole way down.

[ funerals the whole way down.

well, except the one cot that doesn't have anything on it, apparently. ]

[honestly, what's up with that cot.
