《The book of forever》Chapter 2.2: The other shore
Advertisement
And so my letter received far away, a letter back urging me not to stay, our paths had split and my heart was now free, the letter answering my long held fears. It was really the end, continue on, replow our fields, and prepare for the fall, the cycle continues again and all. We're back where we started, a untamed land. We're back as wanderers, by our own hands. We've let go of the shackles of old love, we continue to find our final home. We're adventurers, we're nomads you see, we're vagrants, migrants, on this path to see, what is love, what is this feeling to me? Not all of us know the answer, not I, some of us know but still choose to far fly. Not everyone needs love, but do I? A home, a place, where we see eye to eye? That would be nice so I venture 'gain, that would be nice, so we head off like then.
We're on the road again, leaving footprints, we're on the road again leaving a past, we're on the road again with pictures, last. The sides of the roads decrepit figures, giving up their own path to sit alone, on the other warm houses lived in lone. We're on the road again, not found a love, we're on the path with no destinations.
Some happy on their lonesome, some not so, some 'venturers looking, others gave up. "I'm not worth loving" but have they looked down? Sometimes all it takes is their feet on ground.
Some can't find love, some give up far too soon, some never tried, never wanted to move. Others tried, but were knocked down and down 'gain. I the fool, have decided to follow.
And so we're on the road again for long, and so we sing our lonely lonely song, and so we're on the road again, to then, one day find our place in this cold hard world.

It's not time to give up, not time to cry, with a single sigh, I continue forth. I look to the sea and find someone far, I cannot go where they will be and are. I go look at my fields unplowed and dry, another time, another long sad sigh. We pull our boots straps up, we continue. We get ready and so we continue.
This path of love is not easy to some, it was not ever easy to me atleast, this path of love is ruthless and endless, but we'll find a place for it to once end.
And so my letter was sent back, far away, so on this shore I couldn't longer stay. To set my feet to go far far away. A lingering glance, A tearful, quick, run.
And so we continue,
We continue,
"goodbye"

Filled to the rafters with every personality imaginable and their intricately interwoven life journeys, everyone has a story worth telling.

8 180Myth of The World's Trees
And Simon answered their call with a single statement that nobody understood "Et super mos absit hoc hodie!" "Yah!" "WWWaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!" "AAAlllllaaaaallllaaaaallllaaaa!" "EeEEellllleeeeeelllllleeeeeeuuuuuuu!" I, too, yelled a battle cry at the top of my lungs. I had no idea what Simon had just spouted but from Camilla's giggling, I could guess that Simon thought that spouting nonsense was his way of getting out of the earlier predicament. "I forbid death upon this day," Camilla said. "What?" I answered a bit at a loss. "Ancient Latin," she replied smugly, "He said 'I forbid death upon this day'." I laughed aloud "Then he is gonna be really disappointed in everyone here," Camilla did not reply and instead took a deep breath. I did the same, zoning out everything in my surroundings. The environment became a world of electrical pulses traveling across several networks. I perceived the world through my lightning and sped my heartbeat to inhuman levels. I was present now, at this moment, at this point in time. I could feel the electrifying air saturating my lungs, the electrified ground vibrating at the rhythm of the approaching enemy. Then I took a step forward, everyone followed in tandem. Camilla the first, and then the others. Then I took a second step, and this time everyone followed simultaneously. Third step… Fourth step… Fifth step… Then light jogging… Speeding up… Running … Running faster…. Then suddenly, everyone disappeared into motes of light particles that re-constructed itself hundreds of feet above the horde, dozens of miles away from our initial position. We were literally 'diving' into battle.-------------------------------------------------------------------Despite a rough childhood in the slums, Omari had everything a guy could want - a loving girlfriend, an understanding sister, a wonderful teacher, and his dream job. Still, the scars from his childhood made Omari unable to live a dull life. He dreamed of something greater... something beyond the reaches of what humankind could achieve in the current era.Like always, Omari should have been careful what he wished for. In the year 2046, the World was thrown into chaos as the apocalypse came in the form of massive trees that shot up out of the ground one day.These trees towered over the tallest of buildings and had thicknesses that spanned kilometers at a time.They grew everywhere, in homes, businesses, and cities as they formed a complex network that overlayed the old world.The cause of the apocalypse was unknown, but Omari's workplace was believed to be the origin point of the unfortunate events.Fifteen years after the start of the Apocalypse... after all the pain and suffering... after losing everything he cared about, Omari sent his memories back in time to make sure that the future he lives in, never came to be.Will he be able to uncover the mystery of The Trees? Will he be able to protect all those he has lost? Will he succeed, or will his attempt be washed away by the currents of time? Will Omari be able to learn the truth about 'THE MYTH OF THE WORLD'S TREES'?
