Chapter Sixty-Eight

"Again."

My skin engulfed in flames as the crown was placed on my head again. I screamed out as I felt my body caving in on me, my bones crushing into a million pieces as I watched the land die. Ice so cold it burned my body. My insides were melting and freezing. I would choose death over this pain. I screamed as I felt something move from my belly and spread through my body. It was cold as it was painful. I felt it slip out my skin through my fingers and feet. Rather than relieve me of the pain, the movement intensified the pain I felt, making me scream and call out. Words made no sense to me. My surroundings had faded into pitch black with occasional visions from the crown coming to view.
