NATE
Nate is being sloppy, in all the ways he would normally be able to reign back. Circumstances, stained in ash and lonely caves and loss repeated again and again wearing him down in a way that’s unlike the pins and needles panic of his childhood.

She kill people? She dared to change? Is that it?” Straightening, Nate presses his back more firmly against the door, nostrils flaring when he does. “Or is it just because she dared to look up at the Gods lording over all of us and say fuck you?”
