Even more progress on Kashi! I'm quite happy with how she's turning out.

Some close-ups for details:

Gurgin Backstory Drabble #1

Gurgin creates life for the first time.

The shemul* drew its first breath, and Gurgin’s heart leapt. 

It was wet with blood, fur plastered to its body; clay made flesh. That same blood still dripped from his fingertips, yet in that moment he forgot about the taste of it in his mouth. The lower pair of eyes opened first, glowing yellow, before the lids of the upper set peeled back to reveal red orbs. Its ribs moved like a bellows. His hand hovered above its head. 

Sensing him, its muzzle wobbled questingly towards his outstretched palm until contact was made.

“Good,” said Gurgin’s Master. “Now kill it.”

* shemul = four-eyed dog, one of Zahhak's creatures

This is set not long after Gurgin joins Team Zahhak, so I guess he'd be around 17 or 18. This is technically generic backstory but it feels especially relevant to Sacrifice AU (which is at least in part about putting Gurgin back in the same position and him saying 'actually no I won't do it' 👀). If I do ever write that AU then you can expect an expanded flashback where you'll see Gurgin become increasingly dispassionate about such tasks. And while I don't think he enjoys killing his own creations, it's clear that he does grow to relish bloodshed under other circumstances and will even come to enjoy the taste of blood.

The process of creating creatures such as the four-eyed dogs is at least 90% headcanon as we're never told how it happens in the novels. I think of it as involving a Team Zahhak-style libation, and naturally, it requires blood.
