Really powerful! It's interesting seeing how your style adapts to the pov, too. It felt fresh and very immediate, but still gorgeous as ever. 

Two of my favourite lines:

"One tangle of limbs is not unlike another: you in your soft beds, we in our coiled heaps, all breathing."

"The pulse that drives you is our drums in the deep; our hollow hearts, still beating."

This whole piece has a very poetic structure. Thank you!

This is so powerful, and moving - and beautiful. 'What remains of you in us still sings' - indeed, but it seems to me that you've given the orcs their own song, too. I loved reading this - thank you.

Just as beautiful the second time

what remains of you in us still sings

🥺

Very thought-provoking and well written!

This was so beautiful, it felt so malinchonic like remembering a long time ago where things were different. I felt like they were trying not to use that little part of humanity left in them

Drums in the deep, still beating. This is very powerful.
