Are you not appeased? you asked, when first your chains were broken.

She isn’t. She kneels without your bidding, head bowed, palms clasped and trembling. If you asked for her heart, she’d offer it raw and bloody, cupped in her own hands, but that isn’t what you want of her. Your rage, she has neither soothed nor earned.

You cup the fine mortal curve of her skull, more familiar now than your own, and draw her in to rest against your thighs – no river delta, only flesh and bone beneath. You let her worship. You tell her, be at peace.
