Summary: It's always the same night.



It’s the same night. It’s always the same night. Lightning crawls across the sky, rain pours icy rivers down his skin, and A’Li’s wide eyes accuse him from within the grave.

No, not tonight. Tonight the mud is thick and cold, the grave full as he empties it one handful at a time. Tonight, she is dead, upraised hand still clutching the dizi he’d abandoned with her body. He can’t bear to see her face like this, but he takes her waxen fingers in his own and weeps.

A’Li is dead, and this haunted, never-ending hell is all that he deserves.
