Cold missiles and a rain of embers accompany the men who slide like shadows into the city faces mud-smeared stones for teeth no eyes
who slit the throats of everyone they encounter until breaking down my door they drag me into the darkness that floods the corridor and lock me in an icy chamber --from "THE LAST HOURS OF LAÓDIKÊ, SISTER OF HEKTOR"
