The shroud of death seemed to follow them everywhere.
 
Even as Kisamoa returned, gone from the depths of the sea, extending towards the enigmatic ramparts of the Ancient Rotunda, asking them for bones, to scrub away the filth, the grime, that was once the Spectral Marsh (an unrelenting, eerie place, a burial ground), her heart sunk. Gone were the intriguing rites of waves, foam, and magical, enticing reefs; now they were left to traverse into eventuality, into eternal slumber, into pieces of memories that choked and suffocated. She almost argued, spoke into the gathering crowd, that demise couldn’t just be rid of – it was natural, a part of life (and the image of the Reaper, recently deceased, still intact and stored in his tomb shudders over her, made bile curl in her throat), but remained silent instead. Her soul ached for those doomed to be lifted from their final resting place – for the beasts who’d bowed their heads as they were stuck in a bog they could never escape, for the restless cretins who’d squandered their way into an early grave, for those who’d simply died without anyone knowing their names, their features, or their dreams.
 
She hung her head, listened, and followed his directions – daunted by portions of the task, hoping to be more of assistance in maneuvering objects, trees, fragments of broken bits, instead of bleached cartilage and bloody fates. Imogen frowned, perceptive and knowing, promising to pick at the more difficult facets of their current expedition, but it still didn’t make the Songbird feel any better. She wondered, very briefly, if they just couldn’t leave the Spectral Marsh alone, down in its resting nook, a graveyard, a crypt, and if there was a motive beyond it – a forest thicker than the trees. Her lips closed together, immersed in quiet reflection, in questions, in observations, that lingered perilously, dangling over the edge.
