The Goddess of Lies

100 Faces in 100 Stories — No4

--

Elyria, they called me once upon an age ago.

Elyria, they sang, as they danced under the light of a Blood Moon.

Elyria, they chanted again and again, even as they tried to catch me and burn me as a witch with the powers of deception.

Elyria, they spat, as they told me I was the reason for all the world’s webs of suffering.

Elyria, the name they gave me to damn me, my comrades, and all my kin.

Elyria. They thought they could save that poor girl.

But instead I became the goddess holding a scythe over their heads.
