she speaks to the cowled one; he who stared back with bloodcraft eyes and fangs scything. she did not know which of her husband's gods had cut him through the mists of her waking dreams and cast him into her blindthird eye; crowding through the cobweb-thick gathering of her slumbering anguish and appearing so heavily before her as he had now. his name was not one of the things she knew, though; but at the present she neverminded it, for she was sotaherra, and she would demand for it soon all the same.
ever since she had risen from the henge, she knew him now to be one of her oathbled.
she would have his name and his word and his blood. she would have everything of him and call it to hers.

"... but not yours."
her words were not unkind, here – turning now to scry the she-wolf made of finer things, as sweet and sugarspun things often seem to be – but they were without the warmth of summer and glinting entirely with chilled, careful curiosity, statement. for her, aėrith had not dreamed of; and for a moment she cannot help but wonder her presence is only some manner of haltija mischief, conjured into being and blinded to her up until now.
it would not be the first time.
