Characters/pairing: Engraver
Rating: All audiences
Warnings: None

Once, the engraver painted with ink and brush on silk, but she finds needles on skin are more precise, the tinctures for painting dreams richer. The colour of pain glows more brightly than the sunset.

Once, she was an artist with eyes for this world, knowing that the lines she sketched would fade and melt away like morning mist. Now she engraves sorrow that will be carried as an offering to that other shore and will never grow faint. Now she etches snakes winding through holly, sidling away from the village where once she painted what her eyes could see.
