Summary
Infernal wrath incarnate learns what it is to drown. A stoic and cold warrior felled by impulsive emotion taking course. The emotional course between two, trekked in its entirety. The struggle of people as they break and crumble.
The sins birthed by the mistakes of the Mother, conveyed by her loyal spear unto the end, and obsessive nature taking root within that of fanatics and naysayers alike. Descents of madness, the loss and devastation of people as everything they have ever known shatters.
Their great, unsong story, of moon and fire, ever alone, ever together.
Drowning.
'Tis the only thing he's ever known, his whole life. The only constant that which burdens him. The endless abyss of the ocean, or struggle pulling him into the deepest depths of despair.

Summary
"Clive held her hand in his. She could feel the firm grip he had, the calluses on his thumb as he rubbed circles against her skin. He was looking at her. His eyebrows were furrowed. There was concern in his eyes. He leaned forward. His lips moved and his words…
His words made her angry.
She felt that spark of irritation once more in her chest and like before, that spark, surrounded by the wasteland of her bitterness and resentment left to feaster for years, spread like a wildfire.
We don’t have to have kids if you don’t want them, Jill.
You say that now Clive. But in ten years... "
-------
