《Sitting Under a Torn Umbrella》A Clear Confession of a Man
Advertisement
To come to last part of life,
I would like to kindle a light.
Nothing else but the light of sense,
A burning flame of conscience.
Standing before a window I make a confession,
I have done wrongs infatuated by the passion.
To have a lucky fez on head, I never made any mistake,
I never missed to reach my specified target.
Fortune smiled upon me but I was not fortunate,
Always had to compromise with conflict of interest.
Very often I took undue advantage having used manpower,
In the eyes of common people I was a social worker.
Followers under my custody had no conception,
I could have changed my colour like a Chameleon.
I do swear! I never have killed a man,
I have murdered humanity rather than.
People had a good faith on me as a well performer,
They never had any suspicion about my eye-washing character.
With my faithful hands, I have strangled beliefs of man,
Their hopes, ambitions paid no values for that I played a sham.
All along I made a strained relation with them,
Shallow brained people thought I was poor man's friend.
Oh my God! What I have done is not fair,
I do confess my offence, Shower upon me your kind favour!
It is an acknowledgement of a tired passenger,
Who has come to last phase of life for final departure.

Post War Rules
Life on Torus Terminal is usually fast paced, but simple. A frontier Terminal has little room for easy living, but the great, circular station does boast shopping and culinary experiences from many Imperial races and cultures. Any star is, by its nature, extremely far from its neighbors. But laser highways, and the great shimmering sails of the light-rider spaceships make the trip into only about ten years. Still, the denizens of Torus Terminal eagerly await the day when the Anti-Euclidean Engine their station is built around finally comes online. Once that is done, they will have unfettered access to the entire Empire. Instantaneous travel and trade across hundreds of stars. Torus Terminal does boast one other oddity: a creature which calls itself Human. As he says, the last of his kind for now. He has made quite the life for himself on Torus Terminal, especially in the darker corners of the station. The elites of Torus Terminal praise his name, for once he took up arms, crime began to fall. What they did not realize was that was because he had claimed the seedy underbelly of Torus Terminal for himself and his own goals. The elites praise him as a paragon of law. The criminals fear him as a ruthlessly clever crime boss. Those closest to him, know him as the General. This story was originally posted on the Humanity Fuck Yeah subreddit, where it evolved from a simple play on a historical figure in a science fiction setting into a full blown space opera. I kind of took it as an opportunity to explore a setting I've had rolling around in my head for years. I also decided that it would be nice to have it in a place where I could more easily come back and edit it later, so I'm reposting it here. Here's a link to the original posting if you're interested: https://www.reddit.com/r/HFY/comments/e9cwpl/post_war_rules/ If my genre and tagging is subpar, let me know. I'm still new to Royal Road and I'm open to help. Feel free to comment and make suggestions, or discuss. I love comments, and so long as we keep things civil I also love criticism.
