Humans are cruel, savaged, and violent they are animals pretend to be civilized and dignified and yet they are driven by greed, lust, and hatred. I know because I had seen it all, I saw the ugly and the worst side of human, I saw how they took pleasure by hurting a little kid, how they feel so kinda released by making eat rotten food, that lowly human had to beat to make them feel slightly better for themselves, such a pitiful creature, they think I envy them? Wrong I mocked them.
I promised myself that I would never beco like them so I buried everything that make human, pain, sadness, envy, greed, lust, and most of all…love. I buried everything so deep in my heart so no one could reach not even , and It worked, I stopped to feel, It like I'm disconnected from the rest of the world, I feel numbed…
When I'm not held by the emotional feeling everything becos clearer, it's easy to focus on my plan, making plans is easy as breathing the enemy cannot provoke , their bait is useless, I have nothing to restrain , so I thrive and I prevail.
Years after years I achieved more than I could dream of, everything that I thought could quench my thirst as my throat is dry desperate for sothing but nothing could satisfy anymore, not a mountain of golds, not won, not even the bloody heads of my enemies, I begin to see everything grey and the word gradually lost its luster and all delicacy tasted like ash I begin to miss the tasted of the rotten food I used to have.
'Every dog has its day' well that's true, for my enemy at least. Finally they able to hurt , of course, they die in my hands as a result but they succeed to hurt more than they ever did, well I praised their tenancy by giving them a quick death, I want to give them more praised if only my legs didn't turn to jelly I walk limping then slid tiredly on the tree trunks as I fell to the ground surrounded by my enemy's corpses.
'Embarrassing' that's what ca to my mind, the people in that damned place not only feed rotten food they feed poison too, a poison that so strong I could never get rid of until these days. Afterall that I have been through I can't believe I would be dead like this, alone and wounded just like a dog 'How disappointing'
The gods must laugh at right now, I start to imagine their boisterous laugh as they point their finger at , oh well I wanted to laugh too. Turns out I'm only human, I'm too conceited to admit I need to rely on other people, to proud to admit that I have my own limitation, and this is what I got.
The poison might be the way of god to telling that in the end, I'm just ants inside their palms, I can't change my faith. I feel coldness ran from the tip of my finger to my elbow and stopped on my chest, I cough amount of blood as my body engulf with coldness, I chuckled on my dying ti 'What a stupid way to die' I cursed myself, I don't want to die in my enemy hands, if I have to die it's should be in my own terms, my own will but probably is too late to be picky right now...
I wiped the blood from my mouth with my sleeves, I strengthen my position as I lay my back on the tree trunk trying to look presentable, I don't want my subordinated to find my miserable corpses in pitiful position, at least I can do that right? My eyelids beco heavy, I know I cannot sleep right now I still cannot consent to die here but what can I do? what human could do in the face of death? I look heavenward as make mirthless smiles "You win," I cursed the god one last ti before everything turns dark.
As the darkness swallows whole bit by bit I begin to wonder if anyone sad when I'm dead, it's funny because I never thought about this before and yet I can't stop to wonder, would there be anybody mourns for . I had no family, friends, lovers only subordinates, would my subordinated cry for ? Probably not, maybe they would feel dejected because they lose their livelihood but nothing more, the dead will soon be forgotten and the living moves on that's how life is,
My body suddenly becos light and the pained slowly dissipated, in a pitch dark there is nothing but emptiness, I'm swallowed by darkness then, I have no fear but the sense of familiarity darkness is my inseparable friend that follow for so long, it like a brother of mine so I embrace it with all my heart if I ever had one.
I should have expected this how I die, I know I savaged man like I will not die on the comfy bed surrounded by my loved one only, but still, I wish I could drag all my enemies in this bottomless darkness. I wish they could accompany in this abyss.
Suddenly a small flicker of light burst from my chest, my eyes bulged widely as my jaw hang lose the next thing happened thousands of flicker light burst from my chest like fireworks, imdiately it ceased the darkness around and I'm cover with purple light, then I feel my body beco ward as it feel I soaked in the hot spring in the middle of winter.
I stretch my hands I try to reach the flickers light around but no avail, then I heard a gentle whisper in a distance.
"May the light guide your way even in the darkest path young Prince..."
I heard a sweet gentle voice calling for ....but who?
Hundreds of lights around floating like fireflies then flew to a certain direction, I don't know where it goes but I follow nonetheless. I feel like running inside a dark tunnel then I see the light on the end of the tunnel, the warmth engulf then I hit with a faint scent, is a scent of flower but I never slled this scent before, it's light and shooting with the hint of fresh lemon and clary sage, what flower is this so mysterious it's addictive.
I finally touch the light on the end of the tunnel, I could feel a small hand on my chest, I used to be disgusted from won touch but I longing for her hand, I want her hand stay longer but is all whistful thinking as the hands slowly retracted from my chest, I know she wants to leave I want to stop her but my body refused to listen to .
I open my eyes abruptly, I search my surrounding but I see no one but copses. I clenched my fist as a feeling of distraught crept within , why she left? Why doesn't she wait? Why can she wait? Am I dreaming? Hundreds of questions ran through my head. Then I realize my body feel light, the coldness that always haunted disappeared without a trace. I check my pulsed to search any symptom left from my poison but I found nothing, is like the poison was never there in the first place and not only that the scars and wound on my body also disappeared, what kinda miracle is this?
But one thing is certain, I'm not dreaming, soone was here, a woman slled like fresh lemon and clary sage, a woman with a voice as sweet as her scent, suddenly my heart race, sothing burst uncontrollably within , I don't know what is this feeling but if I found her, maybe I would know, my savior.
My subordinates suddenly appear saying sothing I don't heed, there only one thing filled my head right now "FIND HER!"
