Prologue: In The Beginning
Death. A speculative topic. One that poses problems and questions in every society throughout time, causing different reactions in all those it effects. Some fear it, some prefer not to talk about it, and some embrace it as the next great adventure.
50 years ago a young man made a decision involving death that would not only invoke a drastic change in his life, but in the lives of all those who allied with him or fought against him, all those who touched him or looked at him, and even those who had never heard of him. He chose to fear death and to live forever, thinking he could change the world into how he saw fit. He played a deceptive game that not even Fate herself saw coming. For he had been placed on Earth to become a Dark Lord, yes, but he was not meant to alter the timeline and live when he was meant to die.
Now, change can be a good thing and it can be a bad thing. It all depends on how you go about this change and whether or not you keep the balance between Light and Dark. Lady Fate watched as this young man fought to change and mold the world. And change he would, change it into something atrocious. She knew that if this man were to succeed, the balance between all things good and bad would be destroyed. Without balance, the world could not prosper and would slowly deteriorate.
As a Guardian of the Earth, Fate knew it was her responsibility to alter this new fate, to keep the balance. So she endowed a young couple's child with a gift to change the course of the Earth. It was with a heavy heart that Fate gave the young boy a new purpose in this world; one she knew would involve much suffering and hardship for the young child. Whispering words of luck and a promise to help him when the weight was too much to bear, she receded back to the heavens. Forever watching and hoping that she had made the right decision.
Like it? Love it? Hate it? Despise it? Wanna hit it with a spatula? Reviews appreciated. I would say required but...I don't have to 'cause I know you'll review anyways! Apologies for any grammatical errors, my beta is currently my little sister.
And don't forget, I light candles and incense with flames.
