Twofirm

Gyredream

[ Tammuz ]

*Tammuz quivers and chimes a jarring tone.*

O-Oh. Oh u-uh oh oh. By contrasts, a q-quake stills even the most anxious trembling...

The world... the world becomes and unbecomes. All the nervous, volcanic energy of being. Who becomes who? Three became one, but what of them now?

And w-what becomes of Tau? Of me? Of y-you?

TauChime

[ Tammuz ]

*The chime knells a soft and brittle tone.*

B-bright, she. And sang to the spark in T-Tammuz, too. By her, and through her, one could well-night feel full and at crown's end.

She r-returns to Soft now, yes? And then to walk free as -else. See... see her there for me. G-Goodbye.

1) ... [End]

Companion2

[ Tammuz ]

*Tammuz's chime rings even quieter and more tremulous*

2) Live and drink. [End]


Else2
