《The Great Hero》Chapter 2: once upon a time...
Advertisement
I sat there in the infinite void. My conscience was broken and I was not capable of logical thought as the physical construct that controlled that was long gone. In a sick irony the only thought I could fathom was “Why?”.
at that stage it was irrelevant to ask why I was asking “Why?” in an infinitely recursive loop. It was as if I was questioning the purpose of existence itself.
Why is the eventuality of defeat for us a constant?
Why must the hero always win?
Why is the presumptuous morality of humans’ right?
Why is it that demons are evil?
These questions were asked an innumerable number of times. However there was one thing I had going for me. I existed. It wasn’t the assumed absolute termination of everything that defined me. And the fact that, that was true was a spark that could overcome inevitability itself.
Infinity itself is irrational and nothing but a flawed concept. The machine that could only say “Why?” over an infinite number of eventualities escaped the loop;
Who am I? Me.
Why am I here? To usurp fate.
Where am I going? A place where I can contradict the false construct of fate.
This originated from the overwhelming will to undermine the inevitability of the loss of my race. I could accept the defeat and went to rest. I could even accept the atrocities they did. I loathed the apostles of the end and indoctrinating hierarchy with the very core of my being. However, I don’t hold civilians of either side in contempt. If I were to then I would lose the only defining factor between what I am and what I hate the most. I don’t think either side is better than the other; nor do I feel a particular longing to destroy the other side. Mabey it was just idealistic pontification that led my race to destruction. But if I didn’t have a dream to see all races of the world work together in a synergistic manner towards a better end for all then what would I be but them. All that I cannot accept is the concept of an absolute path leading to a predefined end outside the context of absolute truths brought about through logical reasoning (1+1=2).

My conscience, through infinite eventualities, was reconstructed. I had no idea where I was or what would happen. Suddenly, a torrent of memories, long gone, fell upon me mercilessly. Imagine how it feels to gain a family and find love; to only have that all destroyed in ways so horrible it transcends your worst nightmares. I could only lament.

Dark Matter
In the year 2023, scientists investigating the nature of dark matter caused a blackout throughout the entire world of Coranth. With this blackout came the appearance of supernatural and near-magical elemental abilities able to be wielded by all. By harnessing the dark matter in the environment, even ordinary humans now accessed powers that would have been deemed fantasy. These abilities include Wind, Fire, Lightning, Water, and Terra, being the five natural elements of which dark matter is absorbed by the planet itself. Additionally, the two moons orbiting Coranth offer the "Superior" elements of Dark and Light. The year is now 2041, and Dark Matter will follow the story of an adolescent boy named Raiden Sullivan in a dystopian future, 16 years old, eldest of 2, and son to Marcus Sullivan. Raiden is an intelligent young man belonging to a poor family with an absentee mother. He partakes in daily chores to cover living expenses after school and his home life is surrounded by his caring father and younger sister. In truth, this is my take on urban fantasy with slight LitRPG that keeps the "magic" elements somewhat scientific for a more realistic story. In using the dark matter surrounding our universe, humans can now harness elemental abilities as well as absorb dark matter from the beasts/monsters to further strengthen their abilities. For the most part, that'll be the main premise of the power system. Full transparency, this will be the first story I write and also the first story I publish, so please be patient with me. For some context, I'm an avid reader and after 4 or so years of only consuming, I feel that it might be time to try my hand at writing instead. Please feel free to add your opinions and criticism, it would be much appreciated. With that said, I hope you enjoy Dark Matter!
