HEARTS IN DARKNESS: THE BODY

[yourkeepers]

The body glimmers as the light spreads over its features, like a statue of precious metals stained with blood. Golden hair soaks in a pool of red that paints the floor like a canvas, extending out around the head and shoulders of the victim, still lazily seeping and expanding.

It's the body of the the oracle, and she is very much dead.

Her entire throat and chest is a mess of gore. The blood coats the skin and cloth so that it's hard to make out details, but there is one thing certain - something has cut deep into her chest cavity, as it carving something out from inside.

The body is still warm, but you never heard her scream.

[So it probably wouldn't work. It didn't really make him feel better that she'd been killed before her heart was taken out. Dead was dead and he'd been stuck under his own body, unconscious and unaware of the danger to her.

He shook his head and turned his attention back to the blood trail.]

Please just... make sure she's treated with respect.
