Neon Genesis: Ragnarok
Prologue
It is said that Odin offered his eye for knowledge of the end of the world, the battle to end all battles, Ragnarok. Most, if not all the major Gods of the Norse would fall. After the great battle, the world would be consumed by fire. The sun would go black and the stars would be cast from the heavens. The sky would be scorched as the earth sank beneath the waves of the oceans.
But a new world would rise from the oceans after the destruction of the old. The few gods that survived would return to Heaven. Balder, the son of Odin, would come to dwell within the halls of Valhalla. Two mortals would survived deep within Yggdrasil and repopulate the earth.
Sayoko, Kristine, Dawn, they all told me what they been taught and learned throughout the years. That is was fated to happen.
I didn't believe it. I thought it was lies told so many times for so long that those who taught them believed them to be true.
And then it did become truth.
I watched as friends, family, and loved ones died. But it was the loss of my one true love that sent me over the edge, and a daughter by marriage to bring me back. She told me of a plan, a plan to change our fate. But it would come at a price.
That price was the product of myself and my true love, the only piece of evidence that our love existed.
Our daughter.
She would live, but I wouldn't be there to see it.
It was the toughest choice I ever made.
And I hope it was correct.
