Title: Night Terrors
Summary: The sound of silence
Notes: Moar malts, moar! Though it doesn't say who it is here, it's Ravir.

He dreams of silence.

In these dreams he is floating above; no air rushes past his ears. Below is stretched Arambh: her cities, her grasslands, her jungles.

He knows what is coming.

Like ink spilt on parchment, a shadow creeps at the horizon, then floods over the land, wiping the world clean. He can see the faces of the children watching the nothing come for them: wide eyes, screaming mouths, but no sound comes to him. The ink-shadow spreads and, when it is over, all is black sea to sea.

The sun does not rise.

He dreams of silence.
