So much time on the other side
Waiting for you to wake up
Waiting for you to wake up
Minutes passed, or maybe it was hours. Time meant nothing through the haze of pain and shock.
Tarak crouched beside her in the snow, his tail lashing back and forth as he screeched, hoping to draw the attention of someone, anyone, who could help. It was too much effort even to shift. The wounds on Soh’s chest and stomach bled sluggishly, a stark, bright reminder of all she’d gone through. She should have known better than to get involved. Her presence had done nothing. She’d only been a liability.
A familiar voice rang through her mind, and she was dimly relieved that it was Deimos. Deimos, she said weakly. The tundra - the Void - there was a yeti - Words slurred, blurring together in her mind as she struggled to explain. They’re still out there. Melita, and Zavien, and Alys.
She didn’t know Zavien was dead. She hadn’t seen him fall through her own hasty flight from the battleground.
Her breath came in a wheeze. Was this what it felt like to die slowly? Maybe it would have been better if the blow had simply killed her. Maybe then she could have passed to Mort’s halls in peace. Could have seen her parents, could have seen Auden, could have seen Harper… but instead she was here, slowly bleeding out into the snow.

Maybe I'll see you in another life
