《Being Nigerian In A Foreign Country.》Intro
Advertisement
Okay, let me start by telling you a little bit about myself.
I am from Nigeria, Edo State to be specific, but I was born in Warri, Delta State. I lived there for about 12 years until I moved to Port-Harcourt, Rivers State. In 2010, my dad decided he'd had enough of Nigeria (not in a bad way though, just wanted a fresh start). So, in 2012, we moved to England. And can I just say I'm loving it here. Well . . .
Right, enough of myself, this ain't my auto-biography lol.
Anyway, this piece of writing is all about my experiences so far in England, and how different, very different it is to Nigeria. I bet some of you in a similar situation as I am, would be able to relate to a few, if not all, of what I'm ranting about.
Please do comment, and share your experiences too, so I know I'm not the only one and that I'm not going crazy lol.
Oh and don't forget to vote too, cos that would make me a really happy girl.
: Yes, we've come to this. *roll eyes* Some people might find some of the content in this work offensive, but trust me that is definitely not my intent. I can't help it. I'm being truthful here; just pouring out my feelings really. You know what they say, "the truth is bitter." So, suck it up buttercup!
Enough said . . . you ready? Set? Let's go!

Reality's Gate: Stealing The Gifts Of The Gods
One day, earth managed to create an alternate Reality Gate. However, it malfunctioned, molding our reality with the other. In this, it became commonplace to jump between worlds, create magical wonders, destroy and create with but a whim. The biggest change though came from something that was truly unique: The "gifts" given at birth. These "Gifts" given by the gods of that reality were now bestowed upon our Reality as well. Yet, there was one person who wasn't given a gift. And in a last ditch effort of The Anomalous One to fight the gods gave him a gift since the gods wouldn't. Though it was a gift for him, it was a curse for others... This is a story about The Successor of the Ouroboros, who was given the gift of thievery, the gift of taking what the gods give to others and using it for his own purposes. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________ This is not a good guy's story. This is someone filled with hate. This is someone who wants revenge against the gods who didn't give him a gift. This. Is. The. Anti-hero. Of. Anti-heroes.
