Shrinking

Svetlana's eyes that filled with hate and anguish locked onto Erend as he stood above her, his presence casting a long shadow over her. Eccar was only a few steps behind with his eyes that still wary as he slowly closed the distance.

The fear that once gripped Svetlana when facing the Dragonborn was now gone, replaced by raw despair and burning hatred. Her body trembled, not from fear, but from grief and rage at the sight of her sister's lifeless form.

"You monsters!" she spat, her voice breaking as tears streamed down her cheeks. "You call us destroyers, yet look at what you've done! My sister, my only family! You slaughtered her like she was nothing!"

Her cries echoed across the battlefield, and for a moment, there was a flicker of doubt in Erend and Eccar's eyes.

Erend felt a pang of something deep in his chest, a brief moment of pity. The grief in her voice was real and he almost wondered if they had gone too far.
