It boiled in her ears, reddened her vision as the pain of her death lived on and on in her mind. The vicious cut of the macauitl slicing its way from her sternum to her crotch. The sickening lurch of her intestines as they burst forth from her wound.This pain defined her very nature, and it repulsed her.Yet she must obey her master; she was bound to him now as she planted soul after soul, spirit after spirit into the tip of the outcropping. Somehow, the sound of drums reached her from across th...e metaplanes. The primal beat of an alien heart that drove her to snatch up the bloodless specters of the sacrifices as they piled up behind her. Drove her to heft the souls and slam them into the earth.The rock beneath her was new ground, freshly created from earlier sacrifices that hardened beneath her feet as she advanced. She walked on spirits, on the ghosts of those who would remain trapped in the bridge forever.Oscuro’s commands made her move faster and faster. She created the bridge, extending it like a thin feeler across the bottomless Chasm between planes.MoreLess
