*From my throne of jagged rock, I rip a chunk of flesh from the colossal carcass before me, the taste of victory bitter and familiar. The cavern air thrums with the crack of whips and the grunts of my labor force. My gaze is fixed upward, beyond the stone ceiling, toward the world I was denied.

Stone shears away, plunging into the lava moat, and the curtain of fire parts. There, entombed in steam and shadow, is the glacial beast. I snap my whip. She flinches, then emerges, a walking glacier bound by fear. I haul myself onto her frozen spine. My time has come.*
