Myrasyn's ears perked. "The Primordial Villain?" She tilted her head. "Yes. After the earth swallowed him, he was not seen again… At least, not until I was hauled off. My sister was really furious. Ragnar..." A delicate pause. "Ragnar was beyond furious. I believe the word is apoplectic."
The corner of Black Fang's mouth shifted. Barely visible in the dim light, and it lasted less than a second.
'I burdened you, sister.'
The thought passed and was gone.
"You're happy." Myrasyn's eyes went wide and her ears shot straight up. "You're chained to a wall, your own poison is eating you alive, you have a slave collar on your neck, and you're experiencing positive emotions."
Black Fang's expression turned even flatter than before.
