In the gloom, light catches the raw, glistening tissue of his brain where a huge portion of his skull has been violently removed. Brimstone, like coarse black salt, encrusts his hair and the single horn that droops over his eye.

Silent, burning tears of brimstone carve paths through the ruin of his face.
