Birth of Darksfallen


I opened my eyes and looked out over my valley, now destroyed. Nothing shown in my red tainted world, the plain, stained from all those who lay bleeding upon it, stretched out before me. The lake, glowing a pale red from the ships that burned on its surface, still managed to reflect the ruddy sky. Looking at the clouds, Mother Nature sends a storm, to clean up her foolish children’s mess. As my gaze wanders the lake begins to shimmer, as the rain drops corrupt the surface. I look down upon myself, my armor shattered and my body broken, I watch my lifes' blood pump out of me, smearing across the silver of my armor. Pain becomes my whole world, closing my mind. A light appears in the sky as a silver creature glides slowly out of the air.

Leaning heavily on my sword, I watch my love land on the grass next to me. Her wings vanish, scales becoming a soft silver skin, her claws and teeth shorten slightly, as her eyes turn a deep blue. Her silver hair burns bright against the rest of my world as I look at her. I slip a hand around bare shoulders, her hair dances in the breeze. We watch the storm come closer, the rains corruption of the lake spreading, nearing us. Pain closes my mind again, as my world shadows, turning black. Opening my eyes, the sky appears above me, my love kneels beside me as pain caresses my body again. A tear drop grazes my face...no, it was raining, I look at her as she smiles, showing her fanged teeth. I feel my heart stop its beating, as my vision dims, I feel her hand stroke my hair as I close my eyes on beauty...Forever
