《Oublivant》1: Null, numb, and nothing
Advertisement
...Darkness...
.... Silence...
.. Sleep.....
....... weak....
.................
..... Nothingness permeated the void, leaving not a spark to acknowledge its existence, save for one, tiny little lick of blue-white flame which floated within the space devoid of color. It knew not of where it was, who it was, or even why it was there, as its thoughts came back, and then faded away. An indefinite amount of time passed between periods of unconsciousness with sparse bits of thinking littered irregularly in time. This flame was not indefinite, the candlelight swaying and decreasing in intensity every time it woke back up from its slumber. A vague sense of self and accompanying worry hit it as it woke up again, but it couldn't move, or change a thing about its inevitable demise. Its mind experienced panic for the first time, a sense of shrinking room. It couldn't move. No matter its anguish and despair, its shrinking space pressed further and further down on it, crushing the flame as its mind screamed into the void in psychic pain. A sudden tear in space and suction ripped it out of its panic for just long enough for it to realize that it was being pulled into the nothingness.
It began screaming louder than it ever had in its short, conscious life, but with nothing to hear it as its presence disappeared from the void. The absolute silence reigned once again, the erasing of the spark leaving no proof that it had ever existed.
...
A wrenching, screeching tremble of space awoke it.
I paused. Dead? No. Good. That was always good, I reasoned, though didn't know why. My vision simply existed, now, and I took took advantage of that to look around the inside of my chambers... Dark was my first impression. I hated the dark. I suddenly realized that my surroundings were a stone, perfect sphere, somewhat cave-like, and about 3 meters in diameter. It was much too small. Nothing good ever came from small things. Speaking of small things... I was small, tiny, in fact. I was much smaller than my home, a tiny, purple and white, crystalline octahedron barely a foot wide and two feet tall, floating in the middle of the sphere. Ow. I watched as a spider web of cracks made its way from the base of the crystal up, and I suddenly felt weak. Ow... OW. OW! OW OW OW OW OW OWCH! THIS-, THIS PAIN! I writhed mentally for a few moments, as it felt like my insides were being carved out of my body through the cracks. WHY?! I hadn't noticed initially, but something was very wrong with me. Something had been since I arrived. The cracks hadn't just suddenly started, they'd simply grown until it almost broke me while I didn't notice. STOP! STOP STOP STOP IT! PLEASE STOP! NO NO NO. N O! I screamed at it, and it seemed to work, as the cracks had stopped, but the pain didn't. Oh... I was in so much pain. The agony was unbearable. Absolute, scorching pain, like-... like-... well, I didn't have anything to compare it to, but it hurt. My whole self, whole mind, was hurt. It was very unpleasant. It took a while before the pain was bearable, and it still throbbed throughout my self. Words I somehow already knew about flooded through my mind. 'ERROR’, ‘ERROR’, ‘ERROR’, and lots of red. It didn’t help the sudden head pain I had, but that didn’t stop it.

A Broken World [Rewrite]
In a world of floating islands of stone in the sky, where rivers flow through the air and defy gravity from one island to another, and ancient ruins can be found containing wonders beyond what can be produced by the lands current inhabitants- a millenia long war rages. In the distant past, beyond recorded history, when the crown of humanity's glory, the city of Uri, had stood whole against the enroaching demon swarms- even as hope seemed lost, a band of heroes, against all odds, managed to steal powerful magical knowledge from the demons. With the demon's forbidden knowledge, in the heart of Uri a new ritual was made. Called, "The Millenial Summoning," the ritual had the power to call a being from another world that would have the power to change the world forever. The first being summoned became known as "The Speaker," and he brought the power of the Gods to the world. With the blessings and power of the new priests, the unstoppable demon hordes were finally halted. A thousand years later, the ritual was used again and "The First Sorceress" was brought to the world. She brought the knowledge of advanced magics, and techniques to find and refine magical talent. With the magic power now added to the battlefield, the stalemate was broken. And for the first time, the demons were pushed back. Another thousand years later, and all of humanites hope for a final victory were dashed. Traitors slew the ritual's participants and took their places, and humanity quaked as The Demon King stepped into the world. His name, his nature, where he came from none of these are known, but what is known is his overwhelming power and his brilliant strategic leadership of the formerly formless hordes. Still, despite their position being even more dire than it has ever been since history has been recorded, humanity held on for another thousand years. Aided, thankfully, by The Demon King not taking the field after the first few years and battles. Now, the ritual is being cast again and a new hero is being summoned. In our world, after nearly three decades of study and hard work, Lucas Jaeger is making his dreams come true. With a double doctorate in both genetics and microbiology, as well as an associates degree in accounting, he has finally, after nearly driving himself mad from stress and sick from overwork, been able to put to together a presentation and ask for a business loan. His long time dream, earned by his own blood and sweat, to start his own commercial genetic company is finally coming to fruition. Lucas's car never left the banks parking lot and Lucas was never seen again in our world. This is a rewrite of "A Broken World." It is basically the same story, just a thousand times better and with decent length chapters!
