Drifting through the painful darkness S'rith fades into a memory, long forgotten but clear as ever...
"Sleep dear child, listen to my song. Sleep dear child let the dragon carry you on. Ohhh, my child, listen to the dragon's call... Ohhh, my child their wings wont let you fall..." There was a young maiden gently rocking a one year old boy in her lap as she sang her beautiful song...
"Mommy don't stop." The boy cuddled closer to his mother's heart...
"Ohh, Syrith... I need to make diner." Placing the small boy down the lady rose... laying the child near the hearth Danae stifly stood... "Mhury take care of your brother for a few minutes... Okay sweetie?" She tried to bend and kiss Mhury but her stomache would not allow for she was six months pregnant with Berke...
Mhury scowled at Syrith...
"Do you wanna play a game?" Mhury said scornfully...
"Yay... what can we play Muree." The child tried to pronounce his brother's name correctly...
"Here's how it goes... You get to be blindfolded and guess what your touching."
Syrith agreed readily thinking that his older brother's malice had been releived after what for such a young one had seemed like and eternity... but innocence is bliss but pain and hatred when understood...
Mhury proceeded to blindfold Syrith with a scrap of hide...
"There. Now I'm going to put your hand in things and your gonna have to guess em."
"Okay."
Mhury Roughly pulled Syrith's hand and pressed it against the table...
"Wood!" Syrith said with confidence... Mhury moved on...
"Metal!" Mhury moved on putting his plan into action... He pulled Syrith nearer and nearer to the heart fire...
"Stay there." Mhury said releasing Syrith's hand and moving around behind him... them with all the strength that Mhury's small muscels could muster he shoved Syrith towards the fire...
Syrith stumbled... Regaining his balance Syrith ripped off the blinding hide... His legs were dead... Syrtih looked down slowly... he was standing in the fire... Syrith just stood there, watching the flames creep up his legs, devourering his clothes and tickling his skin...
The one year old in the memory had not screamed though the seventeen year old watching the illusion did... S'rith scream... a loud peircing scream of pain and burning... his arms and legs lashed out...
But then... everything was dark again with silence that was quieter than emptiness...
