Author Brutti ma buoni
Rating PG
Word Count 100
Prompt 207 Free For All - Millennia
Characters Illyria
It waits. It has nothing else to do. The Well is nothingness, but it is aware.
It waits for the QwaHaXahn to call. It waits for the hole in the world that will be opened.
It waits through centuries. The first millennium is painful. The second drags. By the third, the tedium is grinding. By the hundredth, it is almost resigned to the agony of solitude and inaction. By the three hundredth, it is mad.
It waits till the three hundred and forty fifth millennium, when the hole in the world opens, and Illyria escapes. It has been too long.
