All the answers I need were left in riddles for my modern mind to decipher Chasing after the impossible puzzle to only find it opens to another Evermore so, I find I have not the strength to carry on Yet… there is no place like this I can ever feel closer to belong For a long time now…The Ancients...

The Askance Chapter 6 Part 2b
The cause and the cure I cannot intervene, I can only remember With them both to their passing, they in me now live on forever A past never can be changed and their memories I have lived The longest of time, moments before for after… I believed And here I stand atop a mountain overlooking The Ancients Riding with the...

The Askance Chapter 6 Part 2a
Aidan The Knight Of The Word Several weeks has pass and gone But all I can see is Ei-rian in my mind Life in my world is harder to breathe on Had since her diminished light no longer shine The weight of the dead is heavy But I couldn’t just let go… I wouldn’t For it isn’t just the cause of love...

With Alkaiya shouldering me towards the newly opened way We walk through to see a skeleton on its knees with hands clasp to pray Robes worn only suggests a she to be beyond this other chamber A woman in dire on her knees hence death be her forever And as we struggle through… the open way closes behind us Our...

And the metal fell from my hands for a need to find embrace A desire to hold on to a once love I have given up to chase Yet I stood rooted to my ground, fixated to the image before me Daring not a move for what I did, if I can ever believe to be And Ei-rian’s hand...

The Askance Chapter 5 Part 6d
The dust of time elevate upon my every touch to dust away And writings revealing as promised are the words to say ‘He who listens will never be heard He who sees will never be seen A tongue utters but never of words A mind wanders forever in dreams He who kills will forever fear He who flees will forever triumph A life...

There is no way forward should even if against I’m to plead The only way for a return, is how the ancient words will read And only for a return, nay a way it opens forward for my time And to return possessed… I beckon for my past be left behind Brace yourself Knight of the Word, with my...

The Askance Chapter 5 Part 6b
Further and further with Alkaiya behind me, we paced on Till the glow of the entrance… became a fade and was gone Nothing to be felt ahead of me, darkness I see to be everywhere Panic is bound to rise in me… had Alkaiya not found me there She held my hand with her own, pressuring yet with assurance ‘A...

The Heaori Chamber Several nights ago, I had a dream A dream questioning my faith in The Ancients Am still deciphering what is to mean Before all comes to fall into unimaginable moments The death of Alkaiya to be caused by my makings alone Standing over her lifeless body after with her cryptic bow held That one prophesize dream I am still...

The Askance Chapter 5 Part 5d
In my world nevertheless, these reasons compels me to be alone For no one can even begin to comprehend to things of unknown Whether a curse or a deliverance to befall upon me I have not a choice, neither here nor there to ever be And having lived an unpredictable life faithfully such as mine I would redeem myself in...

The Askance Chapter 5 Part 5c
For the war to end between Gods, its humans they turn to rely How ironic it can be for in my World, its Gods we chose to defy And why all the irregular mishap to have to endure along…? Is there no place in Heaven for us mortals to only feel belong? How from whence they only chose, we...
