Darkness all around, surrounds me entirely. The only light shines within me, the world is dark and obscure... shapeless, moving constantly, restless.
My family has been attacked by bandits when i was 7 years old. They killed them all, for some copper coins. They slashed at my face and left me in the ground for dead. But my heart was still beating, full of rage...anger.... but there was also despair, impotence, fear. My soul awakened that day, my whole existence shook, and a new power was born within me. I was blind at 7, yet i could see. Possessed by all those feelings, bloodlust for revenge, overcome by power, the sweet innocent kid that the town once knew turned into a vengeful monster. The lifeforce of each person guided me through the darkness. The night was indeed dark for everyone that day. My newborn senses took me to the bandits hideout, with just a simple dagger that my parents had stashed away under their bed. Surprised, but overcome by a false sense of security, the bandits started laughing at me. Which made their night even more painful. Quick as a cat, keen as an eagle, I jumped with dagger in hand and in less than 10 seconds, their throats were cut open. I left the hideout and walked back to the house i once called home, under a heavy storm. The rain soothed my wounds, and the bloodlust and rage that overcame me that day, vanished with a sense of accomplishment and never came back.
The gash has never healed, I will walk the darkness for the rest of my life. I still seek forgiveness for what i have done, as for everyone deserves a second chance. I was given a second chance, i was dead but i lived again. I was blind but i can see again. I will no longer see the light, the textures and colors of the world. I can only sense the heat of the soul, in a void of blackness of boring textures. My soul is at rest, peaceful, when the night is nigh. If only i could control my hidden powers, that live deep within me, i could bring peace and order to the world. It is a debt i have to pay, as i brought chaos with it, in my revenge. But as long as the sun still shines, my power can never be harnessed. For the sun haunts me, as it was shining bright that dreadful morning when i became an orphan. Only when i can bring perpetual night into the world, there shall be peace within me, and the world will no longer be engulfed in war and chaos.
