Earth, Sky, World

His last ally. Dead. Andrev watched Rastaban’s body fall, and he paused. The hunters noticed his stillness and paused too. Andrev shimmered back into his human form and stared. Then he turned to the other hunters.

“You call me a monster, but I have never killed a defenseless man.”

“Demon!” Kir shouted. “You killed my father!”

Andrev pinned Kir with his gaze and was pleased to see him flinch. Then he threw his head back and screamed. He let the rage and grief pour out of him, into the earth, into the sky, and then he felt the world shake.
