Some kids’ first memory is sitting on their grandma’s lap or playing in the yard with siblings, but not Eero. No. His was the voice, and he could never forget what it said.
“When the waters bleed, and the walls fall, I will come for you. We will destroy them all.”
Eero didn’t know what it meant then, and he still didn’t now. He just knew there had always been a darkness, an uncontrollable anger yearning to get out.
Every time the voice spoke, he tried to convince himself it wasn’t real. But he knew better. In the back of his mind, he knew the truth. No matter how much Eero disregarded its advances, the voice never faltered. Its shadow would cloud him forever.
He never considered bending to its will before. But now, he might not have a choice. Now he had to do whatever he could to stay alive. Only a man would survive these walls, and it was damn time he remembered the hairy pair between his legs.
