Days of darkness
stiason
The void, a place of darkness and peace. I know this place well. I have met a beautiful elf who has the powers to control the mind. She has opened my mind, seen my darkest demons and still talks to me. it would seem that I have found someone who I can truely talk to. I have so longed for someone who knows what is like to be truely alone as I have been. This elf even helped me face my fears of my evils inside and has given me the power and the will to control my darker form that threatens to consume me and all those who I care for including her. I have experienced something that is unlike anything I have known of yet. the feeling of being needed. I feel as if I have a reason to stay alive. a reason to want to exist. These are dark days that we live in and I fear that even the life of an elf like me could be cut short at any moment. I now know what it is to fear death. I fear not the aspect but the result on others who knew and cared for me. I have found many that I could call my friends and I feel less alone than I once felt. Now I feel as if I can live to face the world with a purpose. a purpose to protect those who I care for at the cost of my life. I have taken many oaths to protect all. I feel as if I now understand the true measure of these oaths. I am not to just throw away my life to protect others. I am to use the life I am given to help protect others and return to those who care. Just months ago I was not sure if I would live another day and did not really care if I did or not. So much can change in such a short time. In these days of darkness we must all find the desire to live or perish trying. for what is living without a purpose. We all must find our own reason to live and fight. To protect that which matters to us and to always fight, not just to help and die, but to return to those who we truely care about.
