5 days out! Beginning of the teaser countdown ;)
They weren’t dreams. Never dreams. Just voices lingering in my mind, faint echoes of souls I now carried, drifting out to play when my walls lifted. I heard them, the cant of the wards, the Vietnamese of a sailor. Only one’s voice spoke in my childhood Creole. A lullaby that soothed me deeper and deeper into darkness.
