The day the sky had filled with flames, their Warden's light and heat bathing them in an incomprehensible destruction, flashed across K'piru's mind. She watched the sweat beading on K'ile's cheek and heard again the screams of children, of elders, of family. In the dirt and blood smudged on his features, she saw tents wreathed in flames, dark silhouettes fleeing and catching alight themselves. Their shrieks of pain echoed like cracks of lightning between her ears.
She hardly realized the scream was her own.
Hands pressing flat against his arms, K'piru pushed back against K'ile, crying out, "No! They're just coming up behind!" And made to flee, in the direction the tia had come. She couldn't feel her limbs swinging, only the shuddering of her heart in her chest. She couldn't see the sand beneath her feet, only wavering mirages bathed in fire.

"Song dogs barking at the break of dawn, lightning pushes the edges of a thunderstorm; and these streets, quiet as a sleeping army, send their battered dreams to heaven."
