Eternal Requiem(v1)

One-two-three-start!— Tick-Tick-Tick-Tick-Tick-Tick Goes the sound of a metronome setting the tone for what’s to come… What awaits? A series of paths that twist and turn, halting and allowing you to advanced, the lines of what is real and what’s not is blurred But what is real? That is the question you’ll find yourself asking, or maybe you won’t at all, The world might have already swallowed you up by them Chewing your mind and dissolving your intrigue into it’s entity, it’s world it’s rings, it’s people, And then it will spit you back up— Tick-Tick And the metronome would have stopped, It stopped a long time ago, It’s ticks setting the stage for another sound, One you are spat into, It begins and it ends Eternal Requiem.

Sound in the Sands II

How many times has it been now? That I've come close to death

I can feel Its touch slowly creeping up to me,

Sheer Cold.

I can hear the stifles of my two other companions just nearby

Although,

Deep down I never thought they were real,

That this was real,

Everyday I suffer,

I think,

Maybe I'm still asleep,

Maybe I'm in coma and can't wake up

Maybe I…...

I died that night and this my hell.

The more I look for answers,

The more Questions I ask

The lower and lower I sink into the earth

The less despair I feel

I do not care anymore.

"Thirteen, Thirteen are you Alright?"

"Huh, Eleven?" I blink,

Its pitch black.

[Eleven] "I think we are in some kind of cave under the desert"

"How did we get here?"

[Eleven] "Last thing I remember was suffocating in the sand, when I awoke, I was here"

"I see you two are still alive" Jissepi's voice booms from somewhere in the dark

"Yes boss, what should we do now?" Eleven says half mockingly

Ignoring Eleven's tone Jissepi continues,

"Light this place up boy, I give you permission"

"Yes sir" Eleven then proceeds to mumble under his breath

I watch in amazement as bright yellow balls of fire form out of thin air

Eleven, you? You can use magic? I Question astonishingly

Only the basics, boss forbade me form practising it

I want to question him more, but I can tell he's hiding something form Jissepi

"Let's look for a way out", I change the subject

Looking around I can see that we are in some sort of yard, a massive tree stands still in the center, its leaves all withered out, branches hollowed out the dirt around us which presumably was grass is now covered with armor clad skeletons.

Jissepi Is already looting corpses

He is strangely silent,

"We are in a castles courtyard" Eleven says examining the walls

"Judging by the architecture and the limestone used on the walls".

[Jissepi] "Then we are guaranteed to find something of great importance

Do not forget what we came here for,

For me,

This castle is mine and everything that comes with it

I want it all.
