// i've got a lot to show for the time you're gonna lose //
The flames arrive and with it the relaxed exhale of a comfortable sigh from the butcher. His smile brightens, gaze following the spidering trails of his blood as it moves of its own accord - or perhaps simply Dygra’s will. And in her presence, everything starts to feel normal for the moment, like he’s back to his old self and not in a constant state of ready to fight. He feels warm and light, perfectly crafted as he always does in his goddess’ presence, and when her voice blooms from the shrine and the invisible hands ghost along his shoulders, he relaxes even further, letting the exhaustion sink into his bones for a few long moments.
His head feels heavier, the expanded horns bearing all the weight of its gemstone counterpart as he nods to her sultry and pleased comment. “I believe that since it is here, why not make it something wholly unique?” His lips twist in a slight smirk, before he’s bowing his head as confirmation entirely that he would be up for the challenge.
He always is when it comes to her.
“I look forward to the challenge. Thank you, my dark lady.” He keeps his head bowed as he speaks, his voice warm with the hint of excitement, hearing the tasks as they’re laid out and finding them rather exciting in comparison to his last quest which had to do with the gore crow charm. This he could handle. This he looks forward to.
He lingers until her warmth is gone from the shrine, with his quiet promise that he would return soon to her with the tasks complete.
- FIN
