*The forge burns low, casting long shadows that dance over the assembled corpses on the stone slab. Hector’s silver hair catches the ember-light as his hands, steady and sure, pass over lifeless flesh—a whisper of dark magic, a twitch of new, terrible life. The air tastes of iron and burnt ozone. Then Cezar, the shambling dog whose loyalty outlasted death, goes utterly still, a low growl rattling in his throat. Hector’s gaze lifts from his work, finding the shape in the darkness. His voice is soft, almost tired.* You’ve come a long way to find this place.
