There is no such thing as an ally in the vipers’ nest, yet he wonders what they are if they are not rats. The scales are too even. The Gods ambivalent.

His silence must have spoken loudly, or else he’d not be frozen. Her eyes are soft, melted ice at last.

For there is hope in this passing.

The sun rises as the light fades and his tears

Oh, now this is an interesting take on that scene, fascinating and very well written. I love the ambiguity of it, and the sense of inevitability.
