like tigers in the night, so stealthy

WESSEX

the wraith

she tied you to her kitchen chair
she broke your throne and she cut your hair

They’ve waited long enough, and there is much, much to be done; it will be easier to juggle when they know all their tasks (at least make a list, which is more or less what keeps the Queen on task these days, given a lack of a personal assistant). Back to her old ways, she sends a mental note to those who volunteered themselves for a special task: Neron, Mara, Amun, and Evelyn, all people she thinks she can trust to keep this secret. Unfortunately, she doesn’t know that Nate has his eye back now, otherwise she would have included him.

While she doesn’t know exactly where to go, there is the assumption that the cold backdrop where she saw the Machine is somewhere in the Fangs - after all, it is the only cold place the Wraith knows. Asking the group to come to the Fang’s shrine the next night - secretly, if at all possible - Wessex will meet them there so they can begin the task.

and from your lips she drew
the hallelujah
