And in the celestial, Mortigi came to put his mark on me, him incomprehensible and immense.

His attention shot through me like cold shards of ice, hurled by a gusting gale built of nothing but sleet and death.

Pain stabbed and slashed, and at the same time his anger burned into me, all of it leaving me squirming under its volcanic heat.

His hate torched my soul, working to extinguish my life’s light, yet somehow, through some miracle, I managed to last through it and survive.

I found myself slumped on the ground.

Someone began lifting me, holding me under the arms and pulling me into the opera house. I wanted it to stop, to get back on my feet, until I realised I couldn’t move.

I watched one of my hands, the knuckles being rubbed raw as it was dragged over timber boards. Somehow it still gripped the blazing stone. All the while, lost in shock, I drooled and dumbly hummed. It took a long time for my sluggish mind to recognise what; it was Schoperde’s song, a song of sorrow, but also hope.
