AN: Hey, this is my first Inheritance Cycle post. It's just going to be a series of drabbles that will be extremely difficult to make sense of. I decided I wouldn't post my intended meaning of each drabble, as they can be viewed in many different ways. If I get enough people who want me to explain them, I'll start doing it. As of my SAO story; although I doubt many of you will care, I've decided I want to map out a large portion of the story and write the first few chapters before I start posting it. I think that method will allow me to refine my work much more than posting chapters as soon as they are over, and will minimize the risk of an unfinished story. Without further ado, DISCLAIMER: I do not own the Inheritance Cycle. Nor will I ever.
Heh, I'm done now.
I promise

A small tear slipped through its prison, exposed to the elements. It seemed the further he got from his past, the more it hurt. The tear that has slowly inched its way down his face finally fell, and hit the ground, not knowing that leagues away, another was shedding their own tears.
