《The book of forever》Chapter 1.7: Us flawed humans
Advertisement
We all make mistakes in this life of ours, I’ve made way too many to count alone. We’ve planted the wrong seeds, wondered what was, but the sun comes up again like clockwork. Learning from our mistakes, they were lessons. Things to regret for sure, but also time, memories we’ll never get back again. Time frozen behind us never erased.
We’ll never be able to do redo them, we might also one day forget as well, yet… as long as we grow, change for better, the same tears won’t flow more than once or twice, gracing this world with a memory new.
Even if I forget, even in loss, every moment that’s made me continues. These hands of mine, shaking in the cold air. These hands of mine, they trace the mistakes made, trying to diverge from the past escaped. These hands of yours, they’ll learn. and grow. and change. Can’t you play a song prettier than last? Last year? Last decade? These songs now play bright. These hands now carry weight, the mistakes made. The mistakes we again try to avoid.
Trace your fingers in the air, these times lost, along with the future ever so shifts, in summer heat or winters coldest frost. We are as insignificant as flies, mayflies struggling to live but one short day. Yet, not all that we do will fade to dust. The memories we’ve made, memories shared, they still exist within our mind as light.
Your laugh, your voice, this feeling unexpressed, it makes my step abit lighter, brighter. I’m glad that you’re here, there is no hate, tears. There is mere, a feeling of happiness, one innocent and unhardened to pain. Lets learn from our past but never lose heart, never shroud ourself off from the ver’ start. That is no way to live, pain, and, forgive.

I may sometimes cry out in misery, sometimes instead a confusion and a doubt, but never do I cry out to hurt one, hurting others is a mistake I’ve learned. Not done on my own shaky hands but ours. Humans will hurt, humans will cry, humans, they make many mistakes, meeting you though… Was not one of them.
Thankyou for being.
You.
Flawed as we are.

Soul Vessel Psyche
If it’s not obvious from the Title this is yet another reincarnation story. The story will be told from the perspective of one Novid Ollo; half-breed son of the Matriarch of the Knora Race and twin brother to Ovis Ollo the future Matriarch of the Vnora sub-Race.The world of Orro that Novid is born into has been ravaged by the demons from the demon world. The Demons were accidentally lead to Orro 500 years earlier by a conflagration of magic from feuding countries of the Vern Race; opening a doorway between the worlds which released hordes of Demons into Orro.The Dvern and the Svern are the 2 Subspecies of the Vern Race responsible for this calamity and were the first victims of the Demon hordes. The next to fall victim were the proud Knora of the North. The ice giants fought the Demon hordes to stalemate and seemed poised to prevail until the dragon rulers of the Demon Race joined the fight. While the Dvern and the Svern are essentially extinct the Knora managed to save 17 females and 55 males.How Novid Ollo is born as half Svern is also how he died in the previous life, and why he is both pitied and hated by his race and others. There are no Gods to offer special talents and Favours, there is no path to Godly Power and everyone is born with exactly the same potential. Novid Ollo will have to carry the weight of the sins of his father like the others who’s Souls were ripped from their lives on Earth and brought to this unforgiving Realm of Magic; filled with Monsters and Demons.What happens to Novid Ollo is entirely dependent on the extent of the effort he puts into preparations for when whimsical opportunity shines its light on him. Fortunately Novid Ollo didn’t come to Orro alone?15 million? other Human Souls were ripped from their lives on Earth at the same time as Novid and reborn on Orro to serve as the last wave of cannon fodder in the unending war against the hordes of Demons.Inspired by; Mushoku Tensei, Slime Tensei, Daybreak on Hyperion. As usual I unashamedly draw some elements from my favourite light novels in writing this Original Fiction.I thought I’d try writing something for the?Reincarnation? genre.?Written in South African English which means closer to the British Standard.?Warning: Mature Content ?Violence, Language and Adult Themes ?List of My Novels:?Realm Eternal??Crystal Guardian ??Exiled Nomads of the Galaxy??Soul Vessel Psyche?

The Fate of The Summoned (being ReWritten)
The Fate of The Summoned In the world of Aethion things are vastly different than on Earth. There is Magic and Monsters, as well as Demons and Dragons. Throughout the history of the world there have been many wars, both between all the various nations and kingdoms and between those nations and kingdoms and the Demonic forces lead by a Demon King or Lord. There are times that the Demons gain so much more power than the other nations, or that the others are embroiled in a war against each other and the lone nation is targeted by the demons. It was during these occasions that the various Gods and Goddesses started giving two things to the races. The First of these things were the Blessings, magical blessings given to the worth for chosen things. The Second of these things were the Summoning rituals, magic rituals that could summon beings from somewhere else, that would be Chosen, by the gods. These beings have almost always come from our world, Earth. It has been centuries since this practice began and the countries of the world have almost always flourished for a time after a Chosen or group of them were Summoned. All of the countries treat the Summoned well, almost like kings or princes in their own right. Well, not all countries, there are some that have treated them almost like slaves, though those countries don’t usually last long. There is one though, that has lasted, for a long time due to their connection to their Patron Deity, the Goddess of Light. They only accept certain types of Summoned and they dote on certain members of the country more than others. Several years ago they performed a summoning, as they were being plagued by overflow from the dungeons. Now they, like the other countries of Aethion, have performed the ritual to fight against the current Demon King, who is said to possess a Blessing. This is a story about Fate, and those that fight against it and those who accept it. In this story the main character(s) do not fight their fate, like those in my other story, rather they embrace it and let it shape them, though that does not mean they are total slaves to it. While there will be similarities to most other Hero sumoning novels, i hope the Mcs abilities and such will make it unique.
