' Just what did I do to deserve this ? Were my choises really that bad ? '
Somewhere in this vast world, an abyss was unfolding. The trees were dead, animals where nowhere to be seen and a huge labyrinth of thorns covered the biggest part of the abyss. As if it was a place forgotten by god the silence filled the darkness. Inside this vast labyrinth of thorns there was a place where, as if it was a miracle the thorns that covered the whole place allowed a ray of sunlight to pass and fall on the ground where an only white rose grew on the almost rocky ground.
A dripping sound could be heard and red droplets fell on the lonely rose. The drops that were falling from time to time came from above, from a place where the sunlight couldn't reach. There stood a man half naked only wearing a tattered pair of black pants. Tattoos could be seen on the body of the half naked man, as if they were trying to form a flame they covered his body in their black color. Only a part of his face was left uncovered from the tattoos, while he had a big scratch passing through his right eye along with his black long hair falling close to his neck the person could not move. The thorns were crushing his arms and legs making it impossible to move.
Blood drops were coming out from his right eye moving down to his hair and finally falling on the white rose that was already half red. As time past and nothing happened the person was staying still, unable to move with an almost dead expression on his left eye he was breathing heavily staring down to the lonely rose.
' What if people could re-live their very decisive moments..... would they make the same choises? '

Wondered the person in the bindings as if asking the lonely rose that was covered with his blood. After a little while as he was watching the small white rose, light bubbles began to fall from the ceiling as if it was snowing slowly till they reached the ground and disappeared on the rocky floor. The binded person slowly looked upwards with only his left eye and the mud that was gathering on his face from all the blood and dust blocking most of his view, he whispered...
" An angel ? "
The view he had was that of a ten.. No maybe twelve years old girl ? The girl was glowing as if she where the sun that didn't exist inside this abyss, along with her angel like wings that were on her back. She was slowly floating closer to the man with the tattered clothes as she looked him in his eye with a face that expressed confusion.
" So... It is finally my time to leave this world isn't it ? "
" You.. What is thee name ? "
" My name ehh ? Well.. Who knows. I forgot my name a long time ago. "
The little girl changed her expression that showed confusion at first into a serious one. As she approached the man to get a closer look she noticed the white rose as a drop of blood fell once again on it. She got near the rose and carefully cut it from the twig. Once again she got close to the sealed person and asked.
" Why are you here ? "
Surprised the person he answered to the question.
" Well... It's a long story. Are you sure you want to listen ? "
" Hmm "
Was the answer the little angel gave and then the man began to explain what had happened in his life. It was quite the tragic story, the story of a hero who saved mankind only to be betrayed by the ones he trusted and had sworn to protect. In the end of the story he then explained how they sealed him here. It was cruel.. No that should be called beyond cruel... The seal he was in was one that forbid him from dieing. With nothing to eat while starving. With nothing to drink while being thirsty to death and unable to die from blood loss while being hurt all over. The girl looked at him and said.

" Poor thing... "
" I don't need your pity.. What i want is to finally be released from this curse. Please I beg of you finish this miserable being. "
The girl stared at the person with her glittering eyes as he looked back at her with almost dead eyes.
" But. Somewhere inside you there is still the will to live. Do you want to live ? I can free you from the bindings that seal you. "
" Even if you release me from those bindings nothing will change.. Humans are greedy even if they don't remember me now they will probably do the same thing some day... I hate it. I don't want to feel this way.. Hatred will only lead to more hatred. So please, instead of releasing me just kill me and let me rest in peace. "
As the man said that the girl could only sigh at what she had heard. After a while of thinking she asked.
" Then how about you get rid of your humanity ? "
The man opened his eye wide as he looked at the little girl's smile while holding the rose on her hand and smelling it as if it had a nice fragrance on it.
" Impossible... For someone like me who only knows how to fight and love those who betrayed him I can't get rid of my humanity... "
" I understand as you are more human than them "
The girl answered as she smiled at him.
" But, I won't take away your feelings or anything. I 'll take something else though.. If you are willing, will you sacrifice your human form ? "
The man was stunned at the sight in front of him. He could only stare at her with nothing but a confused expression. After a few seconds the man slightly laughed and said.
" If it's only going to be the form then I don't care what I lose... I just hope that I 'll be able to cry in the other world. Since my tears have dried out in this place and I cant cry my feeling out anymore. "
The girl could only laugh at what she heard and said.
" My name is Gaia, the world is me and I am the world. With my power I bestow you my blessing. May it help you in the future. "
After that, she went in silence for a moment and with a low voice she whispered to the person's ear.
" It is going to hurt a little but it will only be for a moment. "
As she said that the rose in her hand transformed into a sword and pierced the heart of the man. As time passed slowly and his life flashed in front of his eyes, a whisper came from Gaia.
" Good night, Iryl ! "
The man died there and his body withered inside the labyrinth of thorns along with the lonely rose.

Elora
(previously titled The Vampires Human)"Awe pretty baby, look how cute you look all tied up and crying for us," he softly stroked my face, but the smirk on his lips made me shiver. He turned to look at them, "What should we do with you now?" He asked, lowering himself to my face. I stared at him wide eyed, listening to the others circle around me like lions ready to pray on a lamb. I can't hide my arousal from them, they can sense it, even if I lie, they'll call my bluff. I bit my lip, staring into his red eyes. "Punish me?" ~•~This book contains sexual content, age gaps, light bdsm, and second hand embarrassment.

HEIMDALLR
After his first life, Heimdallr felt he had lived a decent way; he wrote stories and lived a simple life, avoiding publicity and focused on promoting growth to the few who cherished his works. But after being reborn as Heimdallr Dagrsson, one of the many sons of Daesal's greatest warrior Dagr, he was put into a world devoid of wide-spread access to reading and writing. Instead, he was dropped into a world where fighting and death commonly reared their heads. Now, faced between his unsupported passion and his new life's innate talent and upbringing, he will have to find his new path. He will forge a new story that would make even himself dubious of whether or not it's fact or fable. HEIMDALLR is a story taking place in the setting created for another previous work of mine called KOBOLD. It follows a reincarnated person trying to wrestle between their old life and new life's wants and needs, all the while adapting to the situations that arise out of his control. Heimdallr starts out trying to survive and live a new life, all the while facing challenges and growth both fantastical and painfully real. Loosely inspired by Norse mythology and histories (names and some themes), spun into a fantasy, grit-rooted world. Skål! All content warning tags are applied so as to allow freedom of writing but there is no intent of excess or even regular use of these themes. Regardless of this, any and all uses will have dedicated warnings presented in the chapter whenever they are present! Reader beware!
