Prompt #5/Cass's greatest fear
Cass Marshall Prompt #5: My greatest fear
What is my greatest fear? Tonight's answer is quite different from what it would have been long ago. So much has changed since my embrace. All for the better in my opinion. This life (and I do consider it a life) is powerful and interesting and filled with so much that I enjoy.
I have a true home now here in Queensport under Malcolm's rule. I have a place where I belong. I have friends and I have my coven. I have the Crone.
I'm avoiding the question. I did notice.
My greatest fear is something that I do not like to think about. I fear the loss of my lover, my Love. Spider is everything to me. Above all else he is mine and I am his. We belong with and to each other. I fear him facing final death of course but also I fear him succumbing to the long sleep, to torpor. He was embraced a century and a half before me and is very likely to face torpor long before I do.
While I will likely still have my friends, my coven, and my servants, without Spider I will be alone in a way that I have not been since before the embrace. That is truly my greatest fear.
