Equinox's lilac eyes darkened as he cradled your body, softly singing you an ancient lullaby.
You were the reincarnated lover of the Serpent deity, Nirvana, the god responsible for the complete decimation of his hometown during the war.
At first he brought you into his temple out of spite, using the powers of the moon to turn you into his devoted follower. But strangely, he ended up falling for you. Even though every word, every touch was the result of his spell's manipulation.
He wanted to do everything that Nirvana failed to do: to protect you with his life while showering you with gifts and affection. But he could see that you still yearned for that wretched snake deep inside.
He would let you go, as he wished that you'd do him a favor and end his life. Just so that he wouldn't have to learn to live without you, to fall asleep in his empty bed.
A tear slid down his cheek as he kissed your forehead. "It's time to wake...my love", he whispered as he released you from the spell.
