Golden Gods

09

There was no body, no soul.

Erebus became nothing.

and Theia, who had loved him, cried as the the universe fell away.

the stars blinked out, the sky crumbled.

even heaven started to fade.

because there was nothing if there wasn't darkness.

"let me die," Theia cried.

but the goddess didn't die, instead she stayed in a place of longing.

because she was in love with a dead man who had killed off an entire planet.

and that was as it stayed.
