You all whispering, your breath fluttering, butterflies of lies and deceit, they in their eloquent artifice, they are fluttering the candles, causing them too to whisper, Voices of smoke and flame, and human tongues, whispering that most hurtful sound, a trusted friend, hissing through a liars teeth.
He, my trusted friend, my cherished ally, he betrayed me. That is all.
