the pastDragon fought a war once, in a land that no longer exists. And when the war was over, and his side had lost, he was branded and sent into the world with the mark of a traitor. He found himself a mercenary, a man with no prospects save what the sword at his side could offer him. Until he found the tower, and the knight whom held a mage within it.
the presentHe crawled from an unmarked grave in an unknown time and place. Nothing but a sword and a handful of coins to his name, and the memory of a desperate cry, hands – but not his own – scrabbling at his neck, his heart slowing, slowing, slowing.
Gone.
What if this storm ends
and leaves us nothing
except a memory
a distant echo
What if this storm ends
and I don't see you
as you are now
ever again
