No, I cannot resist
Marcus waited.
The silence was overwhelming.
He was left alone, once more, at the shrine before him. Frey did not answer his call.
He took in a deep breath. Marcus brushed the snow that had collected from his shoulders, shaking out his limbs that felt too heavy and weary as he turned. "Thank you for listening." He prayed aloud, despite a lack of physical presence from the herald. The wind picked up slightly and moved the light berries on the altar, the sprigs of rosemary dancing on the cold breath. Marcus tightened his hood, thinking of taking the walk back to the lodge.
Instead, he shifted in place. Wings unfurled and feathers covered skin, bones shifting and shrinking and hollowing. MArcus beat down his heavy, powerful wings until Halo's sky took him in once again.
FIN

Every time your gravity has a hold on me
