At first glance they argued over what she was. They slithered closer to get a better look, two brothers intertwining through the air like flirtatious dragons.

A human shell that faintly moved, they deduced, but one so pretty, smelling of incense, burial soil, ashes and simmering vengeance.

They argued in their hissing, cackle-caw tongue. One glided off, returning minutes later, carrying a maiden’s soul.

It wasn’t hers, they knew, but she was desperate.

So were they. Very.

She’d need more.

She’d need them.

And she’d let them follow.
