Soul Eater
By Lisa McCourt Hollar
Standing over the lake, Ammut held her hand out, calling
forth the spirits she commanded. Flames bubbled from the surface as figures
emerged, achroous eyes, blinded from the heat turning her way, sensing, if not
seeing, that their Queen was in need. Adactylous beasts bowed, growling their allegiance
to the eater of souls.
The creatures howled as she unleashed them on an unsuspecting
world, one that had forgotten her judgment. It was time they remembered. They
dragged the dead before her, their lives deemed un-pure. Ignoring their cries
for mercy, she devoured their hearts, condemning their souls to eternal
restlessness.
