Gintrap

High Praise

Today we went to the city wall and saw all the hunters. Gintrap was there she was the coolest she had a big hord of HUGENORMOUS MONSTERS and when Miss Lumin saw how big the monsters were she said a bad word. I can't say what it was but she looked really scared. I wasn't scared though I thought it was so cool. I want to be just like Gintrap when I'm a grownup so I can have EVEN BIGGER MONSTERS and fight with her and climb her big whale monster so I can be the tallest.

“Did you hear about Gintrap letting Omnisquid loose?”

“Oh fuck, we’re all going to die.”

“No, no, she’s tamed it!”

”What.”

“No, I’m serious!”

“Bullshit. I know she’s good, but no way she’s managed to control that monstrosity. No way in hell.”

“I saw it myself! It was, like, wriggling along her arm, and it didn’t do any weird shit until I tried nicking her flamethrower.”

“Skies above. What did it do then?”

“Eh, I can’t remember, but my eyes were bleeding when I woke up. Weird, right?”

Across the Wastes she rides, the woman who captures titans.
Across the Wastes she rides, her eyes sharp and her harpoon sharper.
Across the Wastes she rides, her convoy more Monstrous than human.
Across the Wastes she rides, and even the most fearsome creatures bend to her will.
In her net, she holds the heavens.
In her mind, she holds the nightmare which consumes reality itself.
Across the Wastes she rides, and behind her, the Wastes follow in awe.
