《The Far Away Dream》Chapter 88. A fairy tale's ending
Advertisement
“Don't do it Nahlia! Don't do it!,” shouts Tayt. I hear his fading voice.
I gasp, as I point my handgun at my demonic foe. I had one bullet and it would be just enough to save my world. The moment strikes me as strange. As I gaze into the pilot's eyes, I felt I could relate to him. He masked himself in loving feelings to escape his own psycho world. Slowly, I close my eyes and point my handgun. Everything becomes still inside of me.
For a moment, I rehash all I had been through. Tayt was still by my side and I just wanted to close my eyes and wish it all away. I could still remember the times we used to read together in my bedroom. The familiar creak of the air-conditioner vents and the slight hints of ocean water were never far from my mind.
For the longest time, I yearned to escape the pain around me and live in a land of no suffering. Oddly enough, I missed my old life and wanted to see it through. Maybe there was an intimacy found in suffering unknown to fairy tale wonders. Like two friends struggling to hold hands in a desert, they shared a memory together and held onto it forever with their hopes and love. They overcame their suffering and found true love, against the odds.
As bad as it sounded I missed my abusive uncle and the beachfront house I called home. I missed my crummy life and the little things that made it bearable and worth fighting for. If I listened hard enough, I could almost hear my abusive uncle yelling at me and barging into my bedroom door. I could faintly hear Tayt screaming at me, not to kill myself. I contemplate pulling the trigger.

Maybe everything around me was really happening? Or maybe I was sixteen again, still reading inside my air-conditioned bedroom with my best friend, and it was all just part of my far away dream.
The End.

The Last Breath
When Yezzu first sent his sons to the realm of men, they brought with them the magic of the gods. They created the three kingdoms we now have today being Dremshen, Ex'ol, and Kantillion. In the five thousand years since the gods left, much has changed. Great wars were fought, Universities were built, civilizations were created. One thing remained after the gods' departure though, their powers. Today, the balance of crafting the three gods brought has shifted. In the beginning, each had the same skill as the other, but the magic that was passed down through the millennia has diminished. The struggle for power that started long ago is coming to a defining moment. Plots of war and assassination are being weaved. Don't despair, for we may yet be saved from the disasters to come. Our hope lies in three young crafters. The first is William Divus, who sets out from his small village into the Dremshen Kingdom to study crafting after his father's passing. His questions about his father and his quest for knowledge drive him. Next comes Ehzahn Obasi, an Ex'olian thief with unparalleled skill. He steals for the thrill, no longer needing the rewards that come with it. He has just achieved his lifelong dream, but he will soon learn how much he underestimated the fallout from his daring theft. The last is Ki Soru, the niece of a powerful duke. She showed promise with crafting at a young age, so she had the best training the Kantillion Kingdom had to offer. Ten years have passed since her lessons began, leaving the king unsatisfied with the results. Her life is upended when her new teacher arrives, revealing a secret kept from her that changes her whole life. These three are our heroes. They were born in separate kingdoms under vastly differing upbringing, but each with their own part to play in the challenges to come. Here begins our tale of mischief and misery with only but a sliver of hope.
