Unintended
It was an interesting feeling, fading. Not painful, but certainly uncomfortable.
King Edymion was fading.
Actually, everything was fading.
The people, the buildings, everything.
While pleased that his plan appeared to be working, Edymion was also puzzled at the extent of the world's change.
He had sent his younger self dreams of Serenity's destruction to keep them apart, to keep her safe. But that shouldn't have changed the world, should it have? His wife still would have wanted peace, with or without him.
With the thought of her, Edymion was suddenly in her room, looking down at her fading body.
A spurt of panic went through him.
All around the palace people had been changing, appearing, or disappearing. The world was changing to fit what his meddling had done to the past. Only those who no longer existed faded without another form replacing them.
Just as he was fading completely, so was his queen.
It was too late to change any of it. Too late to even make it back to his control room.
Before he lost his ability to think, King Edymion had the fleeting thought that perhaps this was what people meant when they warned you to be careful what you wish for.
You just might get it.
