DELAH
"Yes. Your people will make fine offerings." Delah replied without so much as a flinch.Moss-eyes watch the girl stroke the starlit creature and something inside of Delah hardens with jealousy. It makes her chin raise slightly and her nostrils flare. "What it means?" The chieftess repeats with a laugh. "What it means for you does not matter for us, or to us. Remember it is you who has been locked away. We have been members of this world and watched how your people broke it, how they made themselves into gods and how you were locked inside that barrier with them.
What it means is that perhaps you have been given a second chance, but we want nothing to do with the vengance you have wrought upon yourselves."
In places deep
With roots entwined
I live the life I left behind
With roots entwined
I live the life I left behind
