An Introduction

This is my first Fanfiction so don't expect much, I used Chat Gpt 4 To Help A little in the writing department by riffing at it with ideas and as a tool against writing procrastination since its fun, but I mostly used it for formatting punctuation since I'm so great at them, and to help with spelling mostly. and there will be some left from editing, Also! if you are a sensitive person I don't recommend this fic, however, I would recommend you, sensitive person, to especially listen to the song here on this page The Epitaph of Seikilos I recommend the youtube version performed by Farya Faraji starting at 1:51, and to understand the lyrics provided down here since I feel like it connected with me when writing this fic, also I am looking forward to the hate criticism and love so send it as quickly as you can
