《Immortal's Lament [Dropped]》Prologue: The End
Advertisement
Really…
Even I, who believes long gone from this world, focusing his ‘almighty gaze’ elsewhere, cannot help but beg him for answers.
What happened?
Where did I go wrong?
Why them? Why not me?
I never waged war.
I only protected, never ruled, those under me.
Even when the other Rulers of Sin pleaded for me to help them in whatever struggle they
were going through, I did nothing, steering clear of any and all trouble.
All I wanted was an easy life, a happy family and happy subjects.
So tell me God?
Why?
Why this?
Why did everyone turn against me? Why did everyone attack me while I was not looking? Destroying my cities, slaughtering my people.
Why did everyone I know, everyone I love, have to die?!
Was I not good enough?!
Was I not just?!
Was I not fair?!
I know I am not perfect, but I am still just a man, unlike You?!
What did you expect from the People of Sloth and their Ruler? We only needed peace, was that too much?
So tell me, God. Why?
…………
Of course, no answer came. I am not foolish enough to believe that there is something out
there that loves and protects us.
There is only cold indifference…
I sigh, gazing coldly at the surrounding armies so desperately trying to kill me. Multi-coloured spells flickering in and out of existence as I shatter them without as much as a single glance. Horsemen and foot soldiers charging towards me, only to completely disintegrate as they come closer than ten meters away from me.
“I should just… go to sleep… I don’t care anymore…” I said, as a slight yawn escaped my mouth.
Yes. It is what I do best, after all.
I should just follow God’s example, adopt his indifference towards everything and just… go to sleep.
And let the whole world sleep with me, forever in a state of indifference.
Just as God intended.
Let the world freeze over and hibernate, until a new spring arrives.
A new world.
One without the self-proclaimed Rulers of Sin, without the self-proclaimed Supreme Beings,
and without the self-proclaimed Heroes.
Let everything die and embrace the eternal sleep.
Together with me.
Together, with my family.

Lineage Saga (Kingdom Building Fantasy)
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] The continent of Erdenia is in flux, nations large and small move to swallow their neighbors. Roving bands of marauders pillage the countryside, and the seas are choked with piracy. Against this backdrop upon the central island of Syroneika exists the Mercan League, an alliance of city states ruled by the Archon from his seat in the Capital, Merlabria. Yet all is not well beneath the surface. The Archon’s health is waning, while the House of Mercan appears on the verge of conflict. Both princes vie for the Archonship, with the aristocracy close behind looking to settle old scores. In the immediate west the Althai Federation is in a state of civil war, the conflict spilling over the border into the League, while nobles’ squabble over petty slights. In this time of growing conflict, the Archon has summoned the warlord of the southern frontier, bulwark against the horrors of the dark forest, and former Grand Scholar of the court. Behind the scenes pieces are in play, and the Scholar possesses numerous enemies, many still envious of his meteoric rise to power. A simple trip to the capital may be more than it appears. However, the branches of fate are fickle things, a single encounter could change the course of history. Or perhaps that is simply the will of fate, and nothing has changed at all, who could know? Could the meeting between a simple slave and a warlord truly be fate’s bough? And if so, where could that lead?
