A five year old Violet cried as he was beat violently with a belt by his guardian. His guardian at the time was a man named Jay. Violet knew that Jay was not his biological father seeing that he was reminded several times. Jay made it his duty to let Violet know on a daily basis that his parents didn't want him and abandoned him. Which of course was not the case.
"Why is there money missing", Jay repeated to a cowereding Violet. Whimpering Violet responded, "I don't know. I didn't touch it". After a few more hits Violet was sent to his room. Violet ran to the little closet that he called his room.
Balling into a corner of his room Violet broke down in tears. This is all he has been facing for the past few years and he hated it. He hated his real parents simply because he could not wrap his mind around the fact that his parents left him with this monster.
Hearing the door open Violet wiped his tears. Jay had a strict no crying rule because according to him real men don't cry. He knew he would get more punishments if he was ever caught with tears on his face. Jay's girlfriend Diamond walked into the room with a few items in her hand.
As Diamond sat next to him Violet put his head in her lap breaking down tears. Unlike Jay, Diamond was the sweetest person ever. She was always there for him and protected him whenever she could.
Jay was borderline crazy and sick in the head. He was not only hitting Violet but he also put his hands on his girlfriend. Diamond has had several opportunities to leave but she chooses to stay mainly for Violet. Violet has a bright future and Diamond knows it. He was extremely talented in the vocal area. He can sing and he knows it. Music was Violet's way to escape from his current life.

"Look what I brought for you Vi", Diamond said with a small smile. Putting a notebook she explained to him, "This is for you to write in. Write your dreams, your hope for the future in here". Hugging her with a bright smile, the first time he has smiled in weeks, he responded, "Thank you".
Holding onto him tight she told him, "Promise me you will never give up hope. God has a plan for you".
"I promise".

Violet banged the boy's head against the wall several times. Before he could get another hit in he was dragged to the principal's office. At twelve years Violet was an aggressive boy.
People react to trauma and abuse differently. Some people stop talking or distance themselves from others. Violet on the other hand became rude, and unnecessarily aggressive. If anything was said that he didn't agree with he will retaliate by beating them up.
It's not shocking, he's doing to others what Jay does to him. Violet sat in his room with a mug on his face. The school suspended him for a month and he was forced to stay home with Jay. The door slammed open and Jay walked in.
Fear covered Violet's face the minute he saw Jay. Grabbing his neck, Jay began to choke Violet, "Why you acting up in school. You want me to beat your ass". Violet shook his head panicky as he felt his air circulation be cut off.
"You will be selling every day of this month", with that Jay threw him on the floor. Violet sat on the floor gasping as he tried to catch his breath. Hearing the door open he flinched a little before he saw that it's Diamond.
"I promise you it's going to get better. Keep your hope", she told him, kissing his forehead.

Thirteen year old Violet smiled as he watched tv with Diamond. It was a good week for him. Jay was in jail as he was being trialed for murder. What Indigo didn't know was that the people Jay killed were his biological parents.

Diamond wrapped her arm around Violet bringing him closer to her. Diamond knew she was meeting the end soon especially after what she did. Diamond knew the whole truth about Diamond, after all she was his mother's best friend.
Diamond set Jay up, she knew he would get life. It's been three years since he murdered Violet's parents and Diamond was tired of the guilt. A few weeks ago she went to the police and snitched on him, he was arrested and is currently on trial.
Looking at the time Diamond let out a sigh, she knew that Jay's goon's will be coming to get her soon. "Follow me", she told Jay, leading him to her room. Going into a safe she took out a box. "The truth about your family is in this. The people will be coming soon. I want you to run and go to dmv". Letting out a dry laugh he said, "What family you are my only family".
Shaking her head she let out a sad smile, "No, please open the box. In five minutes people will be here. I want you to hop out the back door and go to our safe spot". Diamond knew she was going to die, she also knew that Violet will have a higher chance of survival without her with him.
As Violet was trying to argue with her loud knocks were heard on the door. Shoving a bag in his hand she said, "Go now". Violet ran to the back door before running back to give her a hug, "I love you". With a sad smile she said, "I love you too Vi. Never give up hope".
As Violet sat in the abandoned warehouse, Diamond lost her life. But she died knowing she made things right.
Violet rolled outta bed with an attitude already. He has been living in DMV for the past four years, however he has made no attempt to find his family. He honestly hated them with all of his heart. He didn't even make an attempt to open the box.
Going to the bathroom he started getting ready for his day. Violet not only worked in Foot Locker but he was also a street pharmacist. He hated doing those jobs but he had to do what he had to do to survive. Violet gave up on his dreams for music; they seemed pointless to him. When Diamond died all the hope he had died along with her.
After putting together an outfit Violet popped a few perks before downing with lean. Pills were an escape to Violet; they just seemed to drown his pain away.
~~~
A few hours later Violet stumbled into his bed, he was clearly high and off it. As he tried to take off his shirt he fumbled over a box, the box Diamond gave him. In his high state he took a risk and opened it.
Opening the box he saw it was filled with pictures and a few letters. He flipped through them before he stopped at a picture which made his jaw drop. The girl in one of the pictures looked just like the girl he saw in Popeyes a few days ago.Violet put the picture in the box before he threw the whole box across the room.
Fuck them.

The Saga of Geir Røshjert
"His name will never be sung, son. Skalds and bards like me will never tell his stories to the mass. But only us and us alone will keep telling his story, his actions, his saga. For he is the man who started all of this." This is a story no man in Lumenter will ever hear, no man except for an Arnesen, for his stories are dull and generic to the ears of the masses, except for us, because he is the very reason why our people traveled this far east, why kingdoms in Erisgi fell and rose, why I... even existed in the first place. He is Geir, son of Arne, called 'the Stranger' by the people. But what he truly is, is a fiery red heart that beats inside every Eyklandian, Arnesen, and me. Røshjert (My Submission for Royal Road's Writing Competition in June 2022)

Raven: The Beginning
'What's the worst that could happen'? is what I thought to myself as I entered the World of the Veil with a new, experimental machine that the company created. I was originally excited to participate in their alpha test, and now, looking back, I was just a naive little girl that didn't know what it was like to truly suffer. Sarah was one of the world's best assassin players, but she wasn't prepared for getting stuck as a low-level player in a new game. Suddenly she has to struggle just to survive against the monsters of the world, while also keeping her secret from the authorities. What happens when the killing, and the consequences, are just too real? Author's Note (and a Warning): This book is about a normal person that is forced into a fantasy / medieval environment. What could possibly go wrong with our heroine? This novel is a sort of, legacy. I wanted to at least put it out there before I passed away due to a combination of financial difficulty, homelessness, job loss, and my last interview taking up the last of my savings (which I did not get the job). If by some miracle, and I get a job that can give me a pay advance by next week (4/8) and I survive this turbulent time, I will edit this - and the formating of the book). If you are so willing, please donate on my patreon page. Regards, Dave
