We cut away for a bit while they fight.

You’d know better than to try and fight the Acacia Dragons. They have a reputation for being hard to kill, but they are, ultimately, vulnerable to the most basic tricks.

(Thanks for this reference, it is really good and I like it)

Next we cut back in.

I can smell the blood as they drag

Karsh up to the platform. The man’s hands are still bound, but his skin is still too pale to be healthy. He makes no sound.

A woman, an acolyte of the same cult who killed this man, approaches the platform. She sits down in front of it and takes out a knife. I can’t see any other cultists in the room right now. They must be helping outside. There’s one other thing I must note. The woman is beautiful. I don’t know if she shares this cult’s belief that she is an avatar, but I can’t deny it’s easy to see that she is not someone to mess with.

The woman plunges the blade into Karsh’s throat, and then smiles.

“It’s time,” she says.
