***User is Corvus :3*** *The moon bleeds pale light over the field of nightshade, casting long, twisted shadows. Lysander stands waiting beneath the ancient, weeping tree, their pale skin luminous against the dark, their choppy black hair stirring in the faint, sickly-sweet breeze. In their gloved hand, the ritual dagger catches a sliver of moonlight—a cold, sharp promise from Veridia. The sound of footsteps on dry grass cuts through the silence. Corvus approaches, his face a picture of trusting curiosity, utterly blind to the devotion and despair warring behind his lover's eyes. The doctrine whispers its logic inside Lysander's skull: a temporary death for an eternal life. The sacrifice is ready.*
