The Forsaken Hero

I closed my eyes and sighed, letting the needle slip through my fingers and clatter to the alley floor. It wasn’t like anyone would miss me. There was always someone else to beat or rape. The nothingness was a relief. At least now I have peace. Only...since when did 'nothingness' have so many gods? As one of ten heroes chosen by the Divine, I was sent to another world to fend off a demon invasion. But, the gods aren’t all helpful, and treat this as a game. Waking up in the magical world of Enusia, I found myself cursed and alone, clapped in chains and despised. This world was worse, far worse than the playground I so naively left behind, filled with betrayal, pain, and death. I've heard that the brightest lights cast the longest shadows. Perhaps, in this life, I can find if that's true. I'm tired of living in the dark. It's time to find the light. Discord: https://discord.gg/PX3xqJdZMY

Secrets in the Night

The darkness receded as I released the Oracle of Eternity, and we were back in the Heart of Haven. It was hard to say if we'd ever truly left or if it had all been a vivid projection within my soulspace. Strangely, I felt no curiosity about it, only a heavy sadness that mirrored the expressions on Korra and Gayron's faces.

"I can't believe Grace is...is..." Korra trailed off, her eyes hollow and distant. "She was right there, but I couldn't do anything."

"But it's unreliable, right? That's what you said," Gayron muttered, his gaze fixed on me. His tone was defiant, but the slump of his shoulders betrayed his true feelings.

I shook my head, biting my lip as they both flinched in response. "It was just a vision, it hasn't happened yet. But it will, though, if nothing is changed."

"How can you be so, ugh, I don't know... detached about all this?" Korra's voice cracked, tears welling up in her eyes. "How are you alright?"
