Bio: I'm a witty Pacific Islander (from my mom's side. However, I was born in and currently live in the US) with a strange urge to write things right now. I am 19 years of age. My birthday comes when the green ancients burn gold and let their colors fade to life's cinders (aka Nov 1). My current story is XSRA's Flame (XSRA = Sahara), which is being co-written by my little sister, Sky. We have way too much fun writing that up and just creating a secondary world we can mess around in. After all, our characters are all personalized after ourselves and a few other people. My other sister, Allix is the editor for the story. I'm usually reserved but I enjoy being witty and trying to make people laugh. I also have, for some odd reason, a really good relationship with Lady Luck. Simply put, I get lucky a lot. That being said, I'm good at guessing and making predictions, along with finding info and creating absurd and long-winded answer sequences that make perfect sense (to me of course). I love messing around with playing cards, magic and games are just really fun to me. But being a magician comes with a price, and being one that observes everything is even worse, because you lose the enjoyment of other's magic. In other words, I can decipher and figure out other people's tricks. However, I don't reveal them to anyone, that's just mean. This is probably why I'm so analytical and enjoy solving problems. Listening to music, watching Anime, and watching YouTube are some of my favorite things to do, along with playing video games and reading, lots and lots of reading fanfiction (Yeah, never thought those two would be together either ;p).

Favorite Type of Music: Proximity and NoCopyrightSounds (YouTube Channels, check them out if you like electronic club/dubstep mixes), Rock, Alternative Rock and similar sounding genres, especially with good lyrics and amazing music. As well as Nightcore, but I'm picky with this one.

Favorite Bands: Starset (one of them, I don't really play favorites but Starset is really good), OurLastNight, The Offspring, EarlyRise, The Eden Project, Everfound, The Cab, OneRepublic, Thousand Foot Krutch, Imagine Dragons, The Fray, Anthem Lights, Linkin Park. (Yeah, this isn't really all of them, these are just the ones I listen to at the moment plus numerous extra songs. My music playlist is always expanding so this list won't stay accurate for long, but despite that I really like all these bands)

Random Quotes that I created that may or may not affect people:

"Those who seek trouble have never experienced peace, and those who seek peace have all the trouble in the world."

"Only those you deem as worthy can gain the power of your heart, and those who are not...will break trying."

"Only you...can be you, no one else can be as unique or as special as you hold yourself to be. And those who acknowledge that, live life as it is truly meant to be."

"Although darkness may blind you, your heart will always remain true and will guide you through the darkest times."

"No one can be certain in life, you may predict, guess and assume...but you can never be certain. That's the only thing I'm truly sure about."

"Life comes and goes, time never stops, whether you're there to experience it or not. But no matter how small you are in the timeline...you are still the most significant person in the universe."

"No matter how old you are, or what experience you may have, nothing can prepare you to say goodbye."

Just Some Food for Thought:

"If the enemy of my enemy is my friend, then does that make me the good guy, or the bad guy?"

"If time moved slower, would that change anything? Or would timelines shift, evolution change, and personas differ?"

"If God created us in his image, who created God?"

"If olive oil comes from fresh olives, where does baby oil come from?"

"If everyone who believed in God were to suddenly vanish from the world, will civilization burn and come to an end?"

"What is TIME? Is it moments in memory, shifts in balance in the universe, or is it the minutes that tick while we're alive, or the seconds that pass in every ending hour? Or is it just simply a word, that means everything?"

"Is flying simply falling in any desired direction, or is it propulsion and moving forward without the need to touch ground?"

"If all life came to an end, will time stop moving forward?"

"There's a fine line between people who say what they actually feel and people who just say what others want to hear."

"We're only human. We fight, we forgive, we trust, we forget, we break, we pull each other back together. It's a cycle we can never escape from, and yet no one tries to break out. Inside everyone has the desire to be accepted. Whether that be by society or a friend, every single person longs for someone else. Someone to recognize them by name. Names, by themselves, are just names. Yet, they hold the most power over someone. Words like these always contain different amounts of power, that level is only effected by the person you use those words on. Love, hate, friend, enemy, a name, all these simple words will have some effect when given to someone else. No matter how lonely you say you are, or how unaffected you claim to be, words still bring you up or pull you down. All loners lie to themselves about these words, but once you lie to yourself, you can never truly believe you're any different than those enacting those very words. It's this cycle that brings people together, fate has a way of seamlessly forging bonds. Whether that be through other people's desires, or through one's own. If there was a day where no one cried, I'm sure that'd be the day the system breaks and the world changes forever. Tears of joy, sadness, confusion, frustration, they all fall the same nonetheless. So what's the difference? They're still tears, and yet they hold the deepest meanings behind them. Why can't the world see that? A person's value is the same, no one has a lesser value than someone else. A life that's taken, is still a life gone. And that sudden change, it will affect more people than you will ever know. After all, our very existence will continue to affect people. Whether that be while we're alive, or long after we're passed away. We still have that hold on the people we know, the people we cared for, and the people we never wanted to see again. They are all still people. And people never change. A life is still a life worth living, never once is one worth taking. Because a life is the most priceless thing that's ever come to be in this world. So why do we take them so lightly?"

Monologue about Time. I just wrote this to prove a point, no other reason:

"Time. The immutable thread that binds both destruction and creation together in a single loop. Time feigns innocence yet plays the conductor of pain and comfort. It creates, destroys, collects, scatters.

Time is the bearer of death, grief, sorrow, and regret. Yet, it remains the epitome of joy, harmony, peace, elation, and affection.

Time builds you up, supporting your strengths and strengthens your weaknesses. It travels with you, never lingering in a single place and forever follows you second in and millennia out. Time tethers you to reality, an inescapable truth until your consciousness withers and scatters.

Time ties you down, limiting your strengths and plays your weaknesses. It clings to you, never relinquishing its hold and ever tying itself to your hopes and dreams for every ticking second of each passing millennia. Time reminds you of cruel reality, an inescapable existence until you break and your consciousness fades.

Time is your judge and your executioner. It redeems you for your successes and failures and condemns you for your sins and faults. It forges you into a new light and a new darkness. It severs you from the laws of gravity and physicality. Reducing you to the very definition of your soul then sees through your very being.

Time is the harbinger of the end and the beginning. It is the alpha and the omega. It plays the fool and the manipulator. It never ceases yet always stops those in its grasp. It tears through worlds only to build them anew once again. It creates life and ends it in the same moment.

Time is the overseer of all things. It watches you cry, laugh, joke, and repent. It bears witness to your every sin and every falter. It stands perpetually by in a never changing stasis, simply watching.

Time is immortal. It surpasses thoughts and dreams, living beyond life and existence. It remains when all life ends. It survives when death descends upon the universe. It remains when all else does not.

Time in the loneliest piece of existence.

Time... has the ONLY right... to ever feel alone."

The Poem/Elegy I wrote that was used in chapter 62 of XSRA's Flame:

Life is fleeting; we find our grasp on it.

Yet it always slips through our fingers.

We hold it dear to our hearts.

But still, it remains our greatest pain.

No life endures, for we only have time which is given.

Forsaken by fate, we are doomed to a certain destiny.

Life is frail, for we cannot hope to live forever.

Immortality is a dream, a dream no one truly wants.

And yet, we pursue that which we cannot reach.

We reach for that which we cannot touch,

And we touch that which we cannot hope to possess.

For we are frail, and in the end, we do not matter.

Life is uncertain; we follow a path we cannot see.

We venture forth, a destination unknown to us.

Foresight is a doorway to failure,

A door that always closes at the brink of success.

Nothing is certain, for sureness will always be countered with doubt.

We live to forget, rather than live to remember.

Life is unfair, it is the most unforgiving testament of this world

Placed in a timeline so infinite. We are insignificant.

Rarely will our names be remembered,

Rarely do we leave behind legacies worthy of timeless meaning.

And yet, we still try, we pursue that which will destroy us

In the end. No matter the path, even time will stand against us.

Life is precious, it is because of this that we fail to grasp it.

It hurts us, because it is so easily lost.

It destroys us, because it can be so unfairly taken away.

We live to forget, because we do not wish to remember.

We do not look ahead, because we fear what we will see behind us.

We take life for granted, even though it is so dear to our dependent souls.

Yet… life remains, we strive to break the chains that hold us.

We fight to survive an unwinnable battle.

We work to enlighten, in hopes of finding miracles.

We suffer greatly, to ensure that the lives that connect us hold strong.

It is in these fleeting moments, those which we grasp at most,

Where we finally see the truth, that I may someday feel the same way.

On a weather top mountain, I stand, ridden with snow, stone, and icy bands.

Water drops fall and stain the crystallized ground, yet no rain is drained from the heavens above.

It glistens then freezes, frozen in the cold reaches of emotion and pain.

A flat stone, so elegantly carved, sits still at the peak of the world.

A timeless name lay etched in surface and memory.

A life was lost, five years ago today.

We take time for granted, only to spend our final days

Wondering, foreboding, why did we do such a foolish thing?

Time is priceless, yet we waste so much of it.

No one can truly understand, how much I wish to go back.

For upon this mountaintop, on the anniversary of all my sorrow

She remains, frozen in a timeless slumber, never to return to a heart so empty.

-Xera Stark
