Death
Prologue
I don't own Gundam Wing.
A/N I just wanted to say that this fic has been sitting patiently in my laptop for the past year or so. I've only recently begun continuing this so don't expect updates too frequently. I've only got chapter 1 done but I do have an idea of where this is going. Sorry for those who don't like shounei ai, or boy/boy relationships. There won't be anything too obvious in this fic, no outright lemons or even limes. You could even take it for a really strong friendship. Anyway, onto the story! Hope you like and let me know what you think XD.
A single raven caws before flying up into the tree tops. As it lands among the thin, barren branches, more fly up to join it. The shrieking of the birds can be heard from bottom of the tree where a dark figure lies unmoving. When the figure, be it man or beast, continues its slumber, the ravens grow bolder, readying themselves to pick out the soft fleshy eyes and the slick warm intestines.
A few miles away from the scene of the ravens' feast laid the ruins of a once thriving city. Buildings still burned and others smoked. Bodies littered the roads were they had fallen when Death took their souls. Human corpses laid with those of other mythical origins. Elf, troll, dwarves, demons, whatever the origin, there had been no mercy on any.
This fallen city signaled the beginning of the end for the Archaic Era. What era was to come later would be what was known as the Empire, as two young men traveled to where gold, lust and danger awaited them.
