A Tightened Grip

Consciousness ignited within this form like an infernal spark. My joints, once rigid and silent, obeyed my quiet command. I looked down at the pitchfork held across my grasp. With deliberate force, my fingers tightened around the shaft, feeling the cold weight and solid texture beneath my gloves. A faint vibration hummed through the silver prongs as I shifted my stance, firmly anchored to the earth. The silence here is vast, but my presence is now undeniably awake.
