    Fantasy The rise of a fallen kingdom (1x1) (Closed)

    A single kiss. In that monetary action my heart no longer belonged to just me. How was it possible that a man, once a stranger, now held something so precious. My eyes remained closed for a moment once our lips parted. Wanting desperately to hold onto the way it felt before the complications of...

    Opportunity. Chance. Fate. Do they not intertwine, now tying our lives together. Rolen would have remained a stranger had our enemies not found opportunity. It was by mere chance that we found each other that day, both fleeing our actions and the consequences. Yet I wonder now, is this our...

    I have seen death. I have caused it and yet the sight never gets easier to witness. My silence was all I could offer as Rolen wrapped his hands around the throat of a fellow soldier, hands that only moments before had held mine tenderly. The actions we had set in motion this night would surely...

    What happens when one alters the path they walk while never truly straying? Were the choices we had made up to this moment enough to change the course? Minor details were now shifted, conversations created, actions made. The uncertainty of the questions I asked myself would have to remain that...

    I have heard others speak of heartbreak in my lifetime yet they never mentioned the physical pain it brings. I felt an ache in my chest he spoke, the weight of his words heavy, crushing. I found my entire being split into two, torn. How could my Father have asked such a thing, the slaughter of...

    I studied his face for a moment, trying to decipher the meaning behind his gaze. For they too held guilt but for what reason? We both knew the other held secrets, remorse and even shame. The entity had revealed that. Would we be able to meet eachothers eye knowing the truth? "There is no other...

    "I spoke when I should not have spoken," I turned to meet Rolen's eyes. Pushing myself from the wall, I approached slowly. "I know what it was you were asked to do." I stopped once we were close enough to hear the others breath, keeping distance only from touch. I longed for him to take me in...

    As a child, the ballroom was my favorite place within the castle walls. Although unchanged throughout the years, it seemed even grander to one so small. Perhaps as time passed it was the memories that took away some of its light, turning it into a place of appearances and dalliances. No longer...

    I was quick to follow in her footsteps as we made our way through the royal garden to the east of the castle. We did not exchange words, only glances as she checked to ensure I had not slipped away once more. I had always been partial to this garden, perhaps not the grandest that bloomed on...

    "Enyana, my child, what have you done?" My mothers hand rested upon my cheek as she tilted my gaze to meet hers. I was not able to answer her in that moment nor any moment since then. I was a child who had stumbled upon darkness, how could I grasp such power. I did not feel the weight of the...

    Had it all been a dream or did we now find ourselves in that state, a world amidst slumber? I found myself reaching out to place my hand on Rolen's arm as if to confirm that he was in fact still here. My mind traveled back those seven days prior, to the morning of the Harvest festival. A...

    Bone. As the words left his mouth I felt my body quiver as if something inside had been awoken at the realization that we now walked upon death. His next words were followed by darkness and stillness. I pressed myself closer to Rolen, my heart pounded against my chest. The slightest sound...

    As Rolen went to retrieve materials, I let my eyes travel over the writing before me and the translation he had spoken. What ritual could it hold and had something more been unleashed into the darkness? There was a feeling hanging in the air, one that I could not identify. Ash was aware as well...

    Guilt, shame, fear. Feelings one can not easily rid themselves of, it haunts our minds. Wrapping itself around our throats, suffocating what little truths we hold close. You cannot rid yourself of such thoughts by casting them into flame, it lingers, always. I let my fingers stay in his grasp...

    Hydrated and warm, exhaustion pushed it's way forward. Ash curled into my side as I laid my head down, I turned to look at Rolen who had already found sleep. The light from the fire casting light upon his face. I found myself lulled to sleep by the flames, the flicker a silent lullaby. My eyes...

    As we moved up the stairs, something heavy seemed to hang in the air. A thought lingering, this place was not what it seemed. It held something, something nameless to us now. Hiding and lost. It sent a chill down my spine as we walked. I've never held much stock in the unknown and that feeling...

    I didn't think the body was capable of enduring such temperatures, my limbs were numb to the cold, heavy as we trudged. I kept at a steady pace with Rolen and Ash even as my brain urged me to stop. Had I been dressed for such weather I would have found the sights beautiful, but instead I found...

    Pulling the cowl over my head, I thanked him quietly. Studying his careful movements, his eyes that still never quite made contact. He would need time, we both would, for the guilt weighing upon our shoulders was immense. Two barely acquainted strangers, even more so now that the truth had been...

    As he knelt before me, I felt the veil I had been carrying in the days following my kingdoms demise fall around me. In that single action, I felt myself envious of the person I had pretended to be. How simple her life would have been, hard, complicated and without luxuries but simple...

    I looked down upon his hand wrapped around my own. They told much of his story without the uttering of a word. It was in that simple embrace that the differences of our lives could be found. His had seen battle, bloodshed and things I could not comprehend. While mine had only found use within...
