Cold Heart

World of WarCraft character commission.

"Her ears were still ringing from the last shot she fired, drowning out the coming storm and the creaking of the old windmill. She stumbled across the field, desperately trying to reach the tree that could hold her up, fearing that if she were to fall, she would not be able to find the strength to get back up. For a moment she felt comfort in the warm water of the pond and the cool wind that pushed her forward, but fear set back in as she gazed back at her foe. He was still alive, still rising, still bloodthirsty! Or, just like her, all he wanted was to hold on to life, reach safety and see his kin again... But in the fires of War, hearts turn cold, and with one final shot, she will end it all."
