Small amounts of methanol occur naturally in plants and animals.

Methanol flames are almost invisible.


Scurry scurry, fawns and fools,
Snatch up the child, put down your tools,
The forest burns yet makes no palls,
A flameless fire, it seems

Then screaming as you strike your flesh
Know well that you have suffered less
Than when the heavens were possessed
By sweet Iola's screams

Years from now, they would call it the Black Dance. And they would say it lasted thirteen moons. For what else should be thought, when a forest withers in front of you?

"I am Gorhart!"
she cried.

Scorched trees would not lead this dance, though countless quivered here like actors on a stage. Instead it was the things that ran between them. People and animals. A whole cast summoned for an unruly encore. Limbs shook and wings fluttered as the survivors dropped and rolled and fretted and thrashed. In time, this menagerie grew alike. Matching costumes - hairless and unclothed. Perfume shared - of burning fur and birthing charcoal. Even their cries became one. A chittering chorus. A nightmare ode.

And then this happened...
Three figures traipsed through the sand. From a distance, it would appear a beach ball, an octopus, and a scarecrow were marching in formation. There was a rustle of paper and fabric when the trio turned and put their backs to the sea.

"Marvelous! Five stars to all of you."


The speaker said this without looking. For he was busy annotating the margins of a giant book that rested on his lap. The tome was leatherbound in red, which was the most decisive color about him. For otherwise he wore a coat with turtleneck and tassels - brocade in leaf green and metallics. His hair too, while shaggy grey, hid multicolored eyes that glistened on his dome. Each orb swirled with a different color. Those that wept sent paint trickling down his forehead.

"Alright, I've taken out the part with the storm lord."
Phenli said.
"We all knew it was silly."


"I can't breathe!" Fingal complained.

Phenli set down his script before peering at the beach ball. Fingal was up to his sixth layer of clothing (seventh if you counted the sheepskin rug they had wrapped him in). A medley of wedding dresses, lace curtains, nightshirts and funeral shrouds adorned the portly boy. And all was held in place with careful stitching... which Fingal would split soon enough if he didn't stop fidgeting.

And like that, the nine became seven. Nyka's approach was heralded by one man falling, and a second dying naked in the snow.

Cards torn from the deck, while the pot remained on the table.

"Good company?"
Gorhart echoed Nyka's words.
"No, Darling."
She stepped to the edge of the smile. Robed beast and elfin redhead studied one another, either side of the gory smear.
"Rather, let us call it... sacred geometry."
She glanced at Hupomone, stood like an obsidian monolith behind her.

Winds howled around the peak. Snow flurries like puffs of flour in a busy bakery. Gorhart could smell the cooking hearts and feel the kneading flesh. Ice and wolf-fang cutting shapes in the pastry. Warm fruits bubbling through torn sides. Dead men's bellies, full of gas and rising as they proofed.

Drool dripped from her mouth. She shuddered, then paced.

"Let it never be said, My Loves - that damnéd lie: that Gorhart is unreasonable. For I have a proposal."
She turned to regard them both. More drool spilled from her lips. Slow-stretching, blood-rimed threads.
"A means to feed us all."


Each string of drool touched the snowy ground. And there they froze, holding Gorhart in place. Like an old sage whose beard was snagged.

"So fond, my memories of the Conclave.
She sighed while raking bloody hands across the threads, plucking them like harp strings.
"A wonderful time, wasn't it? All of us coming together; deciding how best to butcher our creators. I pray we find that rhythm again. That we persist to give... and take..."


Her sounds were unmusical. Troubled chimes as she played without finesse.

"Seven pilgrims making for the peak. Let us take one each. A child for Hupomone - that he shall make it safely home to Pendra. A child for Nyka - that he shall wander, ever lost, through these mountains. And a child for Gorhart - to join the great menagerie."


She jerked her head till her jaws snapped free. Bloody, frozen spittle was left like an ice sculpture. The perfect mirror of her antlers - their shape inverted in the snow.

"The rest shall perish. But three shall have accord. For whithersoever they roam, the Mad Triumvirate shall hold... that God spoke to them on the mountainside."


She ended behind Hupomone, stag head resting on her shoulder. Gorhart draped the obsidian goddess like a hide of bleached bone and crimson silk.

"Say you concur, Sweet One..."


Her mouth was by Hupomone's ear, but her eyes were on Nyka. It was impossible to tell which of them she was talking to.

"Let it be as it was at the Conclave. Happy little gods... conspiring to the kill."
