The Lark at the End of the World
littlebluebox for Danya [Episode 6]
In the city of Ravensreach, Danya is a name that commands fear and respect. Loud, boistrous and full of charm - Danya is a good man to be on the right side of. However, underneath all of this is a profound fear for his daughter's safety. She is sick and he will do anything save her.
As the story progresses, more and more is taken away from Danya, until he is little more than a shell of his former self. He is trying to come back, but he knows there is not saving what has been lost.
Of course! Robert! How could I forget what you've done for me? Please, please sit! Try the wine! It's good isn't it? I hope so, it was a lot of work to find a tasteless poison. (Beat of silence). Ahhhhhh got you! It was your son I poisoned. More beef?
Can you save her? My daughter? ...then do it. Whatever you have to do. Do it.
[Broken, pleading, grieving] ...please. Don't die. The dead won't thank you. And we still need you.
