Dance of the Dead

    by: JackInTheirBox Author IconMail Icon
She fnishes her knelt prayer and for a moment, you think that she is done with her duties and that she is leaving. However, she begins to hum a ballad of some kind and she poses, ready to do something. Before you can react and think of leaving yourself, she begins to dance rapidly, apparently a part of her ritual. She steps to a very fast pace, slamming her feet down on the earth one after the other and turning the simple tremors into a horrible earthquake.

Her other leg lies suspended in the air, dangling above you. Her foot is smudged by the dirt and grass blades have been mulched in, squashed and powerless.
