Sneak Peek (Galahad's POV)
Added 2025-04-11 13:13:16 +0000 UTCThe fight looped in his head: his father, vicious and unrelenting, Accolon, face and armor alike battered, Mordred and $dragon_name, clinging close to each other, watching helplessly. No matter how much he tried to drown these images, they kept bobbing up to the surface. He was lost, adrift - needed to anchor himself. He needed to see Mordred - though he didn’t know how that would help, if it even could help, if it didn’t stand to make everything worse. But somehow, somehow, he needed to find a reason to justify this all - the painful twist of his insides, the bile that rose to his tongue, the doubt that prowled behind him like a predator. But there was something even more perilous, even more treacherous, a feeling he barely dared put a word to, lest it’ll give it power over him: pity - even worse - sympathy.
