《Eternal Requiem》Mezzo | Colorless Palace, Colorful City
Advertisement
I’ve been here for almost a day now, roaming about the large palace, I don’t know what I’m looking for, but I know I would keep thinking about it if I didn’t search here at least once,
Despite being hundreds of years old the palace is still well lit, there aren’t any books for me to go through as paper has long since become a limited resource here, but there are may data server rooms which I had not expected,
(Even so long ago, this kind of technology was common place)
I’ve been to almost every room of once grand palace and they’ve all been stripped bare by the pirates, anything that could be valuable already taken, the place looks more like a palace in construction than a finished one, bland and colorless….
(There’s probably nothing to find here)
But strangely enough, the longer I stay here, the more I remember of this place,
Aberdeeningham Palace this was where the royal Savić family of Britain,
King Abraham Savić the fiftieth of his name, was a well liked leader, he had two children, Princess Elizabeth Savić the twenty fifth of her name, and Noah Savić the twenty first,
The ones whose memories I experience, I can’t see all however, just specific moments,
Like how lively it was in this palace during the annual ball,
I don’t know why I– he, ended up becoming a pirate,
Only remembering brief moments of it, at first he was called 21 Savić the pirate, but after while he became known as the blackmagic dealer for selling taboo tech, everything else from that era is a blank for me
I do remember a little of what happened to Britain, after I became a pirate my sister Elizabeth became the queen, she would serve as the last monarch of Britain before the island went under

I remember hearing the news that my sister had died following the sinking of the country,
I didn’t care,
I was going to die myself and all I was focused on was surviving, I needed magic, I needed to go the first ring,
(Why am I say ‘I’)
This wasn’t me these are someone else’s memories from hundreds of years ago,
Yet I can’t help but think it was me, I can’t help but feel the experiences
(Why do I have these memories?)

Churrrrrnnnnnn
A small speedboat zips across the ocean,
Another day has passed, I’ve already seen MF off, to the third ring
I can hope he doesn’t die, more so that Zinnia, Claude, Amelia everyone I’ve met there is still alive
Although I wouldn’t care if they were dead either…
I still hope they live…
Vwwoooooommn
Up head tall skyscrapers begin to come into view,
(Oceania)
The largest landmass on the second ring, still to small to be considered a continent on it’s own
Oceania is a considered a Super Island and is the capital of the United Countries Alliance,
Also, where the Second family resides,
The sound of people’s voices start to creep into the churning sea spray from my boat, which nears a public beach,
The people pay no heed to my arrival basking in the sunlight or play in sand for the children…
…
Parking my boat near small harbor for speed boats I hop out onto the beach
(I knew it was a good idea to move in a smaller boat)
…..
“Please remain still”
…
....
…..
……
…….
Beep.
“You may proceed”
Even though Oceania seems to be easy to enter by sea, the real borders are the exits to either the beaches or harbors around the super island, they are all protected by things called registry scanners, if you are registered in as a green UCA citizen it means, you are regular, and will be allowed passage,

Red would render you a criminal and would result in immediate detainment action, and no color means are not registered and will be assessed.
Surprisingly I was registered as green
(I don’t the what I have on the chairman but it is proving be beneficial to me)
Exiting the check, I now fully see myself on Oceania,
The city besides being riddled with skyscrapers, is actually not a bad sight,
Then streets are impeccably clean, the general surroundings burst with color, partly from the many billboards of advertisements around the city, the suave selection of cars driving neatly on the roads, and the diversity of people roaming the streets,
Unity City
I read from a billboard as I walk past it, the words fluctuate between the colors of a rainbow,
(Reminds me of those twins, Claude and Amelia)
Free phone
A sign outside of a booth reads
(This what I was looking for)
Free phone booths are as the name suggest, they are rarely used but the intention behind them was to be of use to anyone lost or kidnapped, inside is single touch screen one button is an instant dial up to the nearest law enforcement and the other brings up a dial pad
Because Harry advised I didn’t try contacting the UCA while on the iron lung, I had to wait until I arrived here,
(Time to get to business)
Brrrrrppp
Brrrppp
Brr–
{“This is Unity City’s emergency hotline, are you in need of assistance?”}
“My name is Kage, and I believe chairman Second is looking for me.”

8 140The book of forever
An experimental diary of sorts recounting my life and experiences, written as a slightly whimsical scifi story about setting off from the past to unknown lands, rebuilding from nothing and finding myself again. The first section of the book contains matched chapters, a chapter for a interlude, both happening at the same time roughly The second section of the book contains more one off stories as we follow one of the travelers explore their heart as well as a unknown land, growing in the process. All of the text here was written in 10 syllable chunks, this reads like a epic of sorts, just with more philosophical focus and POV jumps. Hope you enjoy! >Updates may be sporadic as I only write when I have something about myself I want to share The chapters can all be read individually, although there may be some crossovers between them they work as single poems. You start at whatever chapter you want since these are a collection of roughly connected poems (although you'll notice tie ins and references to eachother)
