Kill the Flame - BG3 Fanfic WIP
Corpse after corpse litters the burning hellscape, scorched and maimed beyond recognition. Adorned in crimson jewels, a horned woman stands atop the chaos, blood dripping from clawed hands. She stares beyond the bodies, beyond the flames, beyond the Blood War.
“Sceleritas,” she commands.
Blood pools from nearby corpses. It bubbles and boils as it morphs into a new diminutive form. The impish being wears a dark suit, highlighting the crimson hue of his hat’s rim and jabot. The fanciful clothing clashes with his decaying, hollowed skin. Beady eyes roll into place as Sceleritas takes in the brutal surroundings.
Clawed, wrinkled hands clasp together in adoration as Sceleritas strides towards his Dark Mistress, “oh, what divine slaughter you’ve sown, milady.” He crushes a skull beneath his pointed boot with a notable crunch. “I knew this little excursion would do you well.” He bows before her with a low chuckle, “how may I be of service?”
“Scout for prey. They’ve become scarce over the years.” She strides past, ready for the next hunt. Sceleritas scurries to her side, “as you wish milady, but first,” he grins, blocking her path. She glowers. Ribs crack. Her hand pierces through Sceleritas’s chest, tightening around his heart. “You know better than to test my patience.”
Sceleritas leans into her, cradling her face in his hands. His mouth drips with blood as he smiles a joyous, sinister smile. With two simple words, he could change everything. He whispers them to her.
So I finally got the guts to write about my Durge (pun completely intended). Please tell me what you think, but before I post more I really need to give her an actual name...
