Don’t Make Promises You Can’t Keep

When Lux opened his eyes, he found himself surrounded by darkness.

It was pitch black, completely devoid of any color. Even as a Half-Elf, who had the ability to see in the dark, Lux found himself unable to see anything.

He couldn't see his hands. He couldn't see his body. He couldn't see whether there was anything in front of him. When he tried to shout, no sound came out of his lips.

It was at that moment that the ear-numbing sound of silence started to make his ears start ringing.

He covered his ears, but the ringing didn't stop.

No matter how much he shouted with everything he had, his voice seemed to have ceased to exist.

For the first time after being reborn, Lux felt truly and utterly helpless. It was as if he had fallen into a bottomless pit, doomed to stay there for eternity.
