《When Fireflies Diminish | Poetry》23 | Something Precious
Advertisement
Sometimes we all feel sad,
Overwhelmed, tired or just not well...
It's like someone or something conjured rain,
To drench our souls in coldness
Until our senses don't see beyond the pain.
But the see-through droplets aren't just rain,
They are promises for better, warmer days,
The rainbow that'll reflect above us and fade
The grey and cold hues that seem endless,
Like clouds that gather in one place.
This gelide vortex that bleaks your view,
Is a reminder of your own body to you,
That there is warm blood inside of you.
Red liquid that pumps through your vein,
That helps you inhale and exhale air.
And that precious breath my dear friend
Is a promise that the cold days will not last.
Inhale.
The smell of crispy leaves and rain,
The smell of flamboyant flowers,
The smell fresh of grass during summer days.
Exhale.
The fear, the loneliness, the pain.
The fog that has dropped over your eyes
Bleaking all that you once loved
bring despair.
Inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale
For as long as you breath there is hope,
Hope for better warmer days.

The Oath of Oblivion
Rane could draw power from the dead and make it his own. For some, such an arcane birthright would be a boon and a blessing. To Rane, it meant being forced on a path of bloodshed and death based on the whims of his slavers. To commit acts that went against every human instinct he retained. Years of torture and captivity have left his body weak and his mind in shambles, yet he still retains a few, fragmented memories. They hint at a life beyond what his prison and what his cruel masters have allowed him. At a family he's lost, and a promise he's already broken. To escape, Rane will have to face fierce beasts, unhinged mages and the true essence of what it means to be human. And as the peace between ancient kingdoms grows uneasy and the world plunges headfirst into madness, the cost of freedom might prove high. In the chaos of conflict and men’s ravenous ambitions, the true name of the world has been long forgotten. Nations wage bloody campaigns with remnants of ancestral magic while nature itself crumbles around them. Only one pillar of stability stands unshaken for millennia, anchoring the realm to balance. One single truth that no mage has yet to break. Oaths, once sworn, cannot be broken. Under the Arbiter's watchful eye, civilizations rise and crumble. People live and die. The words of the strong become law, and law shapes reality. And that is just the reality Rane has to change. Dark High Fantasy story with multiple alternating POVs. The first book is complete and chapters are released daily. Disclaimer: This is a zero to hero story. Don't come in expecting the main character to be powerful right away.
