The square once trodden flat by ten thousand men was now uneven as the grass pushed against the snow above it.
The Dragon herself had been brutally treated: her stone wings smashed from her back, her fangs hammered to shards, and her face daubed with red dye. It seemed to Tenaka as he stood before her in silent homage that she was crying tears of blood.
As Tenaka gazed at the square, memory flashed bright pictures to his mind: Ananais shouting commands to his men, contradictory orders that had
...them crashing into one another and tumbling to the ground.
“You dung rats!” the blond giant bellowed. “Call yourselves soldiers?”
The pictures faded against the ghostly white emptiness of reality, and Tenaka shivered. He moved to the well, where an old bucket lay, its handle still tied to a rotting rope. He dropped the bucket into the well and heard the ice break, then hauled it up and carried it to the Dragon.
The dye was hard to shift, but he worked at it for almost an hour, scraping the last traces of red from the stone with his dagger.
