-
The shadow turned away from the innocent.
-
And back to the evil master
-
Who had controlled him all these years.
-
The shadow reached out to him with ashen hands.
-
And as it did
-
Capricorn began to crackle and fade like the old page of a book. . .
-
Growing transparent and thin as paper.
-
I won't let you!
-
Dad!
-
Capricorn's ink-black soul filled with terror. . .
-
As he saw the end was near.
-
And so, too, did the souls of all those within the shadow's gaze.
