EXCERPT:
Tamsin’s wings, once shining white with the barest hints of outlined brown, were now black as night and pitch and tar. They hung in a malicious sort of droop, the feathers listless and barely discernable in the hints of moonlight shining through the broken walls. Still taking desperate gulps of air, each one a sharp stab in her lungs, Tamsin curved her wings just far enough for her to reach back and touch them. As she had feared, the texture of her feathers had become rough and harsh, almost grating against her skin.
“No, no…” the Valkyrie whispered to herself, as if saying the words aloud would make it true. “It isn’t possible…”

PHOTO MANIPS
Normally I only make one cover for a story, but this was one of those situations where I couldn't choose between some of the elements/pictures, so I just used them all. I also only had access to PaintShop instead of Photoshop, so I couldn't be as much of a perfectionist as I would've liked.
