Beneath still waters

from HDK 96 † Hog Maiden by GLOG & REPPION

/

lyrics

The path through the mire is a treacherous one. Beneath its still waters the fallen lie, as if in sleep. Their flesh turned to leather, their hair a rich copper. Those who came before, and who failed. A hand the colour of wet clay grips our heroine's leg, another clutches at her thigh. She staggers. Struggles to unsheath the sword at her hip. From beneath the sphagnum moss they rise, too close and too many to fight. Hands all over catching her, but none yet dragging her down.
"Back," they hiss into her ear, bog-water bubbling from their mouths.
She struggles. More hands hold her fast. The bog-folk plead more urgently yet. She must turn back and leave this place, lest their fate become hers. Another voice, louder and more clear breaks through their sibilant chorus.
"Zora!"
Her name.
Releasing her, they part, revealing a figure tall, stout and strong.
"Father!"
