Skin deep

Summary:

Sylvain, Marianne, and the things they inherit.

Work Text:

Miklan dies a monster in and out, hand still clutched tight around the lance that killed him. The lance, true to its name, stands tall and cruel above the carnage, a grim standard behind which to rally.

Sylvain, a monster only in, wields it better than his brother ever could.

--

In the dissolving remains of the Wandering Beast, Blutgang sticks out like a bird of ill omen. It is ugly even by moonlight, a crooked thing of steel and bone; a story of wickedness and betrayal given shape.

It fits into Marianne’s hand like it was always meant to be.
