His voice was a mix of defiance and exhaustion—a testament to the life he'd been forced to lead since the fall of the prison.

    Summary

    Carl's mind was a spiral, and he was rapidly falling down into the middle. He stares up at the sky - the puff of the clouds jutting beyond a pale, bleak surface, the few birds swaying in the wind, the sun fading to a comfortable dim sphere, the sting of his eye facing everything all too bright even despite its gloominess - he could almost see the pit of that spiral, feel himself hurdling into the bottom.

    I deserve this, I did this, I put myself here. Let me reap my despair.
