Soulcatcher

Summary:

Of photography and inherent dangers.

Notes:

Disclaimer: Koren or Kronos is not mine. The OC is, but he's dead, anyway.

Notes: Written for the LJ community highlander100 Challenge #122 Dark, Light and Shadows. Also,because I promised to Sparklebutch to write about an old, grainy photo of Koren (after all, I brought it up). But it seems Kronos has an intense dislike of photographers.

Work Text:

Rogues rode in, spilled blood, created mayhem. Law tracked them down and retaliated. The man half-hidden behind the corner of the tavern wasn't interested in black and white, in blood and predictability.

His passion lay in capturing the soul of the subjects in smooth shades of a ferrotype.

He glanced down at the rough sketch above the promise of a reward. Koren. Yes, definitely the notorious outlaw with the intriguing physiognomy. He adjusted the camera.

Later, in the swirling chaos nobody noticed the crumpled body in the shadows. Blood dried dark, and this time, power remained locked in the camera.
