Odette's world shattered the moment her knees hit the earth.
The pain was unbearable.
She wailed uncontrollably.
The rogues surrendered.
But she couldn't be bothered to care.
Lilith had destroyed the remaining Turned
But she couldn't care.
Onyx was worried. Nuzzling her with his snout, trying to provide her comfort.
Violet laid limp in her arms.
She couldn't get the image of her mother burning out of her mind.
Ash came rushing over from across the battlefield. He felt it too. The shift when Ezelreth was burned alive.
In the blink of an eye Ash had covered the distance. He dropped to his knees and sobbed, he tried to pull Violet too him, but when Odette looked up her eyes were still glowing white. Her face had cracks that leaked white light. She looked as shattered as she felt.
She was still running on adrenaline, her brain couldn't think. But anything. And she meant anything that touched her mother would meet a fate worse than death.
