Kaz

Chapter XI. Burnt Offerings.

Dusk formed a dull shade of grey. Kaz strolled down the river north of the Allerian Stronghold, taking frequent minor stops to gaze at the sky. Each and every leaf seemed to mock him, each and every pebble would glare at him. The world around him seemed to close down on him, as if it would implode, tearing him apart soon.

But soon could never be soon enough. He almost wished for it. Oh, what a price it was indeed… She had given him a choice… And he chose what would eventually rip his soul.

Peaches… A hollow word now, a scream of despair echoing in his mind.

The price for a brief time of true happiness was his very soul… He realized now.

The Redridge rundown was a warning…The blackouts he had, were in fact part of his whole existence turning around to something new. He conflagrated a basilisk and sat by the river bank. The same river bank they should be walking together.

She clearly didn’t feel the same. And now Kaz was not the same either.

It was over.

A strange glow showed up in his eyes. And a vouch… “Never again…”

He had lost Lean and their daughter, Anule, upon dying… He came back up fighting.

He lost his best friend in unlife and he came back up fighting.

But… Losing her… was the final blow.

No woman will ever again be allowed to enter this heart. For it lies dead and stiff in his hands now, ripped off seconds ago. Kaz rised up on his feet, shuddering to get used to his new lifeform.

He walked up to a low rock and placed the heart on it. A few steps back and a last sight of it, before closing his eyes. He raised his hands slowly and immolated it.

Burnt offerings.

“Aznar… Don’t even dare to provoke me now…”

The imp widened its eyes and ran to hide behind a tree.

“Y- y- yes, master!”

Kaz glared at the imp.

He needed to find someone new… But not for love this time… He gave up on that. Hate is all that’s left.

He raised his eyes after a few moments… Dusk and her embrace gave Kaz a new way. The moon was cold and cruel. Cold and cruel…? An image struck him.

“Morsters…”

Kaz grinned.
