[September 1] [Night Watch] Watch twilight fall
Title: Watch twilight fall
Day/Theme: Sept. 1 | and the hearts of all mankind can be embittered
Series: Night Watch [book version]
Character/Pairing: Svetlana
Rating: PG
Open your eyes: the world is vast, and terrible, and beautiful. Power screams in your blood, aches in your bones, and the world is alive at your fingertips. You are a force of light, powerful and pure, and you can change the world: make it better, make it *right.*
Listen: this power will break your heart. Power enough to make the world shake, and all of your small mercies, all of your good intentions have consequences beyond imagining. You will grow old in the space of days, weary and tired, and bound by rules that rot your beautiful dreams to nothing.
We do what we must, Anton says, and he does not look at you anymore.
Your smile might break him.
