Shadow Slave
Chapter 1585
Sunny looked at the ceiling, extending his shadow sense upward. At the same time, he allowed his mind to drift back to the very end of the Nightmare.
...And what a Nightmare it had been.
Sunny did not know how long he had spent wandering the dreadful currents of the Great River, trying to escape the Tomb of Ariel. The last cycle had taken... how long was it? Close to a year? And that was only his subjective time. For some people, like Cassie and Mordret, it had lasted for much longer.
But that was only the final of the countless cycles. So, he could not even guess how long of a journey it had been.
What he did know, however, was that it ended in the very heart of the Estuary, past the silent lake where Ariel's heretical testament had been inscribed. Near the forgotten grave of the Demon of Oblivion...
Where a Cursed Terror had been waiting for him, hidden in the darkness.
That Terror...
Sunny was more or less sure who it was.
'The loathsome Thieving Bird, hated both by the gods and the beings of the Void...'
It was the thieving miscreant who had stolen the Weaver's eyes, and whose spawn he had slain on the Forgotten Shore, thus receiving the [Drop of Ichor] and Weaver's lineage.
That single event had started the chain of falling dominoes that intertwined his fate with the nebulous Demon, as well as the rest of the daemons and the dead gods.
Wasn't it very ironic, then, that the Thieving Bird would be the one to break that fate?
And Sunny... was pretty sure that that was exactly what the vile thing had done.
The moment the Thieving Bird's talons plunged into his chest, he felt it taking something from his soul. But then... he vaguely sensed it taking something else, from somewhere that lay even deeper.
