Hecate sways slightly, shifting her weight back and forth over her hooves, crimson tongue making a swift circuit around her pale lips, eyes never shifting from their victim. He had a red horn, the color of blood. Blood. Is it gore covering his spiralling horn, so unlike her and her twin's gnarled ones, or is it just the color making it up?

Slowly the mare's lips peel back to expose filed yellow molars that cut at the soft insides of her hollow mouth.

She can smell him, the pungent odor of the living betraying him.

With a wariness in her fragile, short-legged steps, she inches closer, peeling away from her twin's flank, coming to circle around the prey. It is the usual plan; they divide and circle. No-one can keep their focus on two moving horses at once.

Hecate reaches out for the soft flesh of the stranger's haunches, aiming to nibble at the thick muscle lining his spine. Not a savage clamp down with her teeth, but little love bites, caressing the length of his spine. It was easy to seduce the dying, to pet and stroke them until the tension leaked out of their muscles. Then they die, and the contents of their bowels spill out over the earth, making a bloody mess. In the snow, it was oft pretty, the stains of crimson and piss yellow, the fragile bones peering out from dark skins. In the summer, it was ugly and bleak and grim, but that was okay.

She was ugly and bleak and grim too.

It speaks, and she listens without hearing, before she realizes what it is saying. Immediately she hisses, a sinister, drawn out tsssssss, and jerks back from it as if she has been burned. "Helleborr," she rumbles. "It has a point."


what is dead can never die
