Shadow of the Locust

One summer evening Armando the Blue Djinn was drawn to Joppi's food stand on the outskirts of Santa Isabella by the wonderful aromas that wafted across the desert.
He ordered and quickly ate the Wet Burrito Grande.
But they say one of Joppi's burritos can occasionally be as dangerous as a snake bite.

Armando began to feel the rapidly acting and virulent poison of a corrupt burrito doing its work in his head and gut while hiking home through the rugged oddly Terragen like terrain that very night. Woozy, he toppled from a tall cliff to his doom and he was never found, til now, but then again, he was after all, a Djinn, so much of him vanished immediately like smoke in the desert winds.

Now confirmed, I always suspected Armando's skull was made of Chrysoprase.
It was the perfect blue teeth of his winning smile that gave it away. 

I was going to call this Still Life with Armando (but then I had to ask myself,  is there still life with Armando ? )


Thanks to Yossam for the inspiration of his Crystal Skull. Had to try.
