Sun’s Embrace

When the light touches him, he closes his eyes and feels his life tear away sharply under the searing sun. Hot like a mother’s womb, the heat peels away his bones and skin. He welcomes the pain and suffers so he can reach the final step – to writhe into ash and finally reach his eternal end.

Fire engulfs him, and Godric thinks about his first death, when he sold the sun for the taste of blood.

The sun forgives and welcomes him back, but it’s not blood that fills his senses this time; it’s the taste of human tears.
