And the Dead Shall Rise 1/4
The library was filled with bodies. All of them very, very dead. All of them very, very loud. Chanting her name like a dirge as she wailed in joy as she fed.
But the food was running out and she could smell more of it nearby.
The crowd parted to let her through as she drifted slowly through the first floor. Feeding on their deaths. It took only a few minutes, her hunger awakened and happily gorging upon the energy. Funneling the extra to the dead for later consumption. Calling them to follow her, join their fellows. And if they still had their heads - they did.
As the fights continued outside, Threnody followed the smell, the taste, up the stairs to the second floor.
