This is the beginning of this novel I'm working on. I'd appreciate any creative criticism or feedback. I hope you find it to your liking though.
Prologue
The skies raged over the land, buffeting every thing ground level. This was no night to show remorse, and it did not intend to. Trees came crashing down left and right, and then were swept into the air in a whirl of wind and chaos. A stranger stood unusually calm in the midst of this frenzy. He looked about him with wild eyes, almost as if he were admiring the work of the wind.
With a closer look at the man, one would see the frightening truth; he was controlling the storm. Swift, incomprehensible murmurs were escaping from his lips, and his eyes were abnormally shining with that look one always gets when using the Unique Power…
His voice could be heard throughout the land, among the gibberish proclaiming what-may-yet-come-to-pass.
The Flayer's Prophecy
"The masked smiles of false grandeur will serve the Great One's anger, and back will he send the Phoenix of Time, but this time to light the sky--his tail will crack upon the land, rending the earth. The Phoenix shall appear enveloped in flames replacing the Sun; a violent storm of thunder and rain the immediate precursor of its arrival. Then upside down the world shall be, lest gold be found at the root of the Eternal Tree. All covered with snow and hail, a carriage without horse will sweep disaster through the land, filling it with woe. Let it be observed that as soon as the Rider of the Light is born, the tempest shall cease."
