Alpha - Bisects giant monster

“Poor thing. That must’ve hurt,” says Alpha, walking toward the monster. “There is no more pain. No more sadness.”

Alpha extends her ebony sword longer than her entire body.

“You don’t have to cry anymore.”

Then, with a step forward, she slices the creature in two.

No one has time to react.

Iris and the creature can only watch as Alpha bisects it. Everything about it feels natural. There is no bloodlust; it’s as if this is the only reasonable solution.

The monster’s massive body crashes onto the ground, and white smoke rises from the husk as it gradually shrivels to the size of a little girl. A dagger has fallen from its left hand.
